Bridge of Earn questions

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

How long before I can shower?

Normally about a day later. We’ll tell you the exact time.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone will not bond to old.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. Allow around two hours, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

When we would advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Movement in the bath or tray

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we work on in Bridge of Earn

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Prices and what affects them

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • The type of damage
  • How much damage there is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a fixed price

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • What it’s made of, if you know

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

Different materials, different repairs

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Open a window after bathing

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

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

Do you need bath resealing in Bridge of Earn?

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed while the bath was empty.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Unsealed corners

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How your room will be protected
  • What prep work is covered
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
