Prices and what affects them

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material and finish
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Access to the area

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your pictures

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

Bath resealing in Cardross without replacing anything

Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. Our repair technicians work on baths, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks, and people most often call us about water getting behind the bath or tray and unsealed corners.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Open a window after bathing
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

Do not 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.

Cardross: your questions answered

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What happens next?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Are there extra charges for Cardross?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath or shower and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Why reseal now?

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why book with us

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Work done at your home or business
  • We leave the room as we found it

When a repair is not the answer

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

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Hidden water damage

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

How it works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a couple of hours, 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. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt is not 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 pictures.

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: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
