Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Black spots in the silicone
- Leaks at the edges
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Silicone smeared on tiles

FAQs for Boars Hill
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, so Boars Hill is covered. Prices do not change with location.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Do you cover Boars Hill?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Boars Hill for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Air the room after use
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Keep the joints dry
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
What we do, step by step
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a couple of hours. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- 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
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Point us to the nearest place to park
