Prices and what affects them

We don’t charge extra for travel to Boode. The price comes down to:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How many areas need work

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your photos

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a couple of hours. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  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. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Ask for a price

If you are in Boode and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Boode: your questions answered

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.

What areas do you cover?

The entire UK, including all of Devon. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

How long does resealing take?

A bath or shower generally takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Boode

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Repairs by material

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

What we can’t put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Keep bottles off the joints

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

Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
