Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

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.

What we are called out for in Bow Common

Even good sealant eventually discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.

Common reasons people in Bow Common contact us include:

  • Unsealed corners
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Mould you cannot clean out

10 questions to ask before you book

Repairs by material

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

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

Resealing in Bow Common: why it matters

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why Bow Common customers choose us

  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Everything repaired in place
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Bow Common: your questions answered

Do you seal over the old sealant?

No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

You’ll get the curing time from us.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Damp is the cause. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.

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.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

What information do you need?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

Prices and what affects them

We do not charge extra for travel to Bow Common. The price depends on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material and finish
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send photos for a quote

Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any details about the material

Most clients in Bow Common get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

What a repair can’t fix

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Bow Common

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

How it works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes around two hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  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

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know about parking or access

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: 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.
