Questions from Clayworth

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

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

How long before I can shower?

You will get the curing time from us, normally around a day.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Do you work in Clayworth?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Clayworth for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Bath resealing at your home in Clayworth

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. We are frequently asked to fix missing sealant behind the taps and old sealant that looks dirty, on kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

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

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

Baths

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

How the visit works

Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take around two hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

How to get a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: 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

What affects the price in Clayworth

We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • How much damage there is

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Quotes from your pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Why reseal now?

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What we’re called out for in Clayworth

Sealant does not last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Gaps in the seal
  • An untidy old seal

Comparing quotes

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How soon you can use it again
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • How to look after the finish

Choosing a repair company

Landlord and trade work in Clayworth

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers

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

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
