Landlords, agents and businesses in Bearwood

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bearwood as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Bath resealing in Bearwood without replacing anything

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. We are frequently asked to fix gaps by the taps and silicone smeared on tiles, on basins & vanity units, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

FAQs for Bearwood

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Do you work in Bearwood?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Bearwood and the rest of Bournemouth. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do I need to be at home?

Is resealing worth it?

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Read our pricing.

What affects the price in Bearwood

You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • What the surface is made of
  • The type of damage
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The colour and finish to match

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Getting a price from pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Something in shot to show the size

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

When a repair is not the answer

We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Hollow or loose tiles

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

  • Wet rooms
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Baths

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

The process

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes about two hours for a bath, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a price

Email us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, with your BH11 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
