DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Why it’s worth resealing in Brough

Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

What you get with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

How we price bath resealing

There is no area surcharge for Brough. The price reflects:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How much damage there is

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Natural light rather than flash

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes about two hours for a bath, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  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

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

How to get a price

FAQs for Brough

Can tenants book a repair?

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

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

Is repairing better than replacing?

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

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Brough?

Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Do you need bath resealing in Brough?

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

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Mould you cannot clean out

What your quote should include

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • When it can be used again
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • What prep work is covered

Our hiring checklist

When a repair isn’t the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Hidden water damage
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

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

Materials we repair

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

Keeping it looking good

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Store bottles on a shelf

Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
