FAQs for Chiseldon

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.

Can new silicone go over old?

All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Swindon.

What happens after I send photos?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, usually around 24 hours.

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.

Resealing in Chiseldon: why it matters

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Why us?

  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Prices and what affects them

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

  • Access to the area
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your pictures

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Do you need bath resealing in Chiseldon?

Even good sealant eventually discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.

Common reasons people in Chiseldon contact us include:

  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Missing sealant behind the taps

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

10 questions to ask before you book

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.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Repairs by material

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Shower trays

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Chiseldon

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Chiseldon use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes around two hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
