What affects the price in Broomfleet

Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

Quotes from your pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

How we handle bath resealing in Broomfleet

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. We regularly repair basins & vanity units, baths and shower trays & enclosures, and the jobs we see most are missing sealant behind the taps and discoloured, yellow sealant.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

The process

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a couple of hours, including clearing up.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

How to prepare

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Ask for a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Advice

When a repair is not the answer

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

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

Surfaces we repair

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

How to look after the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Dry the seal after bathing

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

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Resealing in Broomfleet: why it matters

Putting new silicone over old does not last. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Repairs by material

Baths

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

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

FAQs for Broomfleet

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath or shower and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

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

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Normally because the bath or tray moves. We fill the bath before sealing it.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

How long does resealing take?

Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

Typically after around 24 hours. We will tell you the exact time.

Can landlords book you?

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