Cheswardine questions

What happens after I send pictures?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

How long does silicone take to cure?

You’ll get the curing time from us, generally around a day.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the whole UK, including Cheswardine and the rest of Shropshire. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

Can new silicone go over old?

We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone will not bond to old.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

How to look after the repair

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

  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

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

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 kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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.

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: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

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.

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Common problems we fix in Cheswardine

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould grows faster.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Mould you cannot clean out
  • Gaps in the seal
  • Unsealed corners
  • A messy previous reseal

Before you book anyone

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How to care for the finish
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

Our hiring checklist

What bath resealing costs

A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

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

How to get a fixed price

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Where you are, by postcode

If you’re in Cheswardine and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

The process

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which generally takes about two hours for a bath. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Clear the area around the damage

How to get a price

Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Cheswardine, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
