Questions from Chalk Farm

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

What does bath resealing cost?

Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

Can new silicone go over old?

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

When can I use the bath after resealing?

You will get the curing time from us.

Are there extra charges for Chalk Farm?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Bath resealing in Chalk Farm, done in place

We cut out all of the old sealant, treat any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. Whether it’s leaks at the edges and gaps by the taps, we can help.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

What happens on the day

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take around two hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Chalk Farm use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

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.

What we’re called out for in Chalk Farm

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed while the bath was empty.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • Gaps in the seal
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Damp near the bath

What to look for in a quote

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • What protection goes down before work starts

Choosing a repair company

What a repair cannot fix

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • A flexing bath
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

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

What we work on

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

How we price bath resealing

We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The type of damage
  • How hard the colour is to match

Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Air the room after use
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in

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

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
