Common questions in Charlestown
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do you work in Charlestown?
We do. We send a technician to Charlestown for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Bath resealing in Charlestown without replacing anything
All of the old sealant is cut out, treat any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. Whether it’s gaps by the taps and an untidy old seal, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
How we price bath resealing
There is no area surcharge for Charlestown. What changes the price is:
- How much damage there is
- What the surface is made of
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
What it costs 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 photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send photos for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Where you are, by postcode
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- Any details about the material
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

What else we do in Charlestown
Work for landlords and builders
For anyone letting property in or around Charlestown, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Let steam out after showers
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Give the seal a regular clean
Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Why reseal now?
Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Why book with us
- Most jobs done in one visit
- No extra charge for your area

DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
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 won’t last.
