Common questions in Boarhills
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Boarhills included. Travel is included in the price.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Do you come to Boarhills?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Boarhills. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Can new silicone go over old?
We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone will not bond to old.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Generally because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Bath resealing at your home in Boarhills
A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. We’re often asked to fix old sealant that looks dirty and black mould in the sealant, on shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Different materials, different repairs
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
Work for landlords and builders
If you manage property in Boarhills, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Boarhills use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Use the extractor fan
- Let steam out after showers
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
