Questions from Benhall Street

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Something is moving. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.

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

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.

Are there extra charges for Benhall Street?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Suffolk.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

How it works

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes about two hours for a bath. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Open a window if you can

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Related advice

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Different materials, different repairs

Shower trays

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

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

What bath resealing costs

We charge the same across the UK, including Benhall Street. The price reflects:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The type of damage
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Access to the area

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any details about the material
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Upload pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Benhall Street, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Why it’s worth resealing in Benhall Street

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Air the room after use

Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

What we are called out for in Benhall Street

Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Gaps in the seal
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Stained silicone
  • An untidy old seal

Comparing quotes

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How soon you can use it again
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included

Choosing a repair company

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
