DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Blackmoorfoot

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Blackmoorfoot as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes about two hours for a bath, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Why reseal now?

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

Take a look at our prices page.

What a repair can’t fix

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • A flexing bath

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off

Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Common questions in Blackmoorfoot

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

What happens next?

You’ll get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Is the work guaranteed?

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

What information do you need?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
