Chithurst: your questions answered

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Chithurst.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

How long before I can shower?

Usually after around 24 hours. We’ll tell you the exact time.

How long will it take?

Generally a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.

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.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Do you cover the entire of Hampshire?

All of Hampshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Chithurst

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

If you manage property in Chithurst, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

What a repair can’t fix

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes around two hours.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  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

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Open a window if you can

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Related advice

Why reseal now?

Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

How to care for the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Let steam out after showers

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

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

What affects the price in Chithurst

You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • The material
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Chithurst. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • What it’s made of, if you know

If you are in Chithurst and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
