FAQs for Cat Bank
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide. Prices don’t change with location.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Generally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your LA21 postcode.
What happens if you find more damage?

When we would advise against a repair
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- A flexing bath
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Baths
Common problems we fix in Cat Bank
Even good sealant eventually discolours. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.
The things customers typically mention when they call are:
- A messy previous reseal
- Stained silicone
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Black spots in the silicone
Comparing quotes
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How your room will be protected
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- Aftercare advice
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Keep the joints dry
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, typically around 24 hours.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Repairs by material
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
