How it works

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, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let us know about parking or access

Ask for a price

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Prices and what affects them

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • How much damage there is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The type of damage

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Getting a price from photos

You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Where you are, by postcode

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Shower trays

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

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers

Good ventilation is the best protection, 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, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.

When to call us in Castle Quarter

Even good sealant eventually discolours. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

People typically call us after spotting something like this:

  • Leaks at the edges
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Unsealed corners
  • Old sealant that looks dirty

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How to care for the finish
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • What preparation is included
