Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Bath resealing at your home in Beech Hill

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. If you are dealing with an untidy old seal and mould you can’t clean out, we can help, whatever the material.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How we price bath resealing

You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How much damage there is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Quotes from your photos

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Beech Hill as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes around two hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  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. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Getting a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Advice

When we would advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Hidden water damage
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • A flexing bath

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Common problems we fix in Beech Hill

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning cannot get it all out.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • An untidy old seal
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Mould you can’t clean out

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How the colour is matched
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How soon you can use it again

Choosing a repair company

Resealing in Beech Hill: why it matters

Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why us?

  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Work done at your home or business

Common questions in Beech Hill

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Beech Hill?

Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Damp is the cause. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
