FAQs for Coldharbour

How long before I can shower?

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

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Are there extra charges for Coldharbour?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.

Do you come to Coldharbour?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Coldharbour and the rest of Surrey. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

What affects the price in Coldharbour

We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Access to the area
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Send photos for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Coldharbour, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It typically takes about two hours for a bath, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. The joint is dried 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, including around the taps.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Honest limits

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Movement in the bath or tray

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Open a window after bathing
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Keep bottles off the joints

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

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

Signs you need bath resealing in Coldharbour

Poor ventilation speeds things up: damp hangs around, and mould grows faster.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Damp near the bath
  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Unsealed corners

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How to care for the finish

How to compare quotes

Why reseal now?
