Landlords, agents and businesses in Collipy's Green

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Bath resealing in Collipy's Green, done in place

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. If you’re dealing with mould you can’t clean out and leaks at the edges, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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

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, then guarantee it for a year.

Collipy's Green questions

What areas do you cover?

The whole UK, including all of Suffolk. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

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

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Generally because the bath or tray moves. We fill the bath before sealing it.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

How long does resealing take?

Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.

Do you need bath resealing in Collipy's Green?

No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

Common reasons people in Collipy's Green contact us are:

  • Gaps by the taps
  • Sealant that is split or lifting
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • A messy previous reseal

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • If travel is included in the price
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included

Choosing a repair company

When a repair is not the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Hidden water damage
  • Hollow or loose tiles

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

What affects the price in Collipy's Green

Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Access to the area
  • How many areas need work
  • The colour and finish to match

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Collipy's Green. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

For a price in Collipy's Green, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing.

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take around two hours, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
