Prices and what affects them

There is no area surcharge for Bradford. What changes the price is:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material and finish
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How much damage there is

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any details about the material
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Natural light rather than flash

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Landlord and trade work in Bradford

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bradford use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

For anyone letting property in or around Bradford, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Questions from Bradford

Is my repair covered?

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

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Do you cover the whole of Greater Manchester?

The entire UK, including all of Greater Manchester. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Sinks and worktops

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

Resealing in Bradford: why it matters

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. There are no surprise 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.

Why book with us

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • A fixed quote before you book

Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner

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

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

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

Materials we work on in Bradford

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

When to call us in Bradford

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning cannot get it all out.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • An untidy old seal

Questions to ask before booking

  • When it can be used again
  • How your room will be protected
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether the price covers travel

Our hiring checklist

What we do, step by step

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes around two hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Clear the area around the damage

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
