Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
What we cannot put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Hidden water damage
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Basins & vanity units
- Wet rooms
- Baths
- Shower trays & enclosures
Is resealing worth it?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Ventilate the bathroom well
Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
What we do, step by step
You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take around two hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Common questions in Broadwater Down

Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
Normally about a day later. We will tell you the exact time.
What do you need from me?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
