Questions from Cook's Green
What information do you need?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Can new silicone go over old?
We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.
How long does silicone take to cure?
We’ll give you the curing time, generally around a day.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple:
- Let steam out after showers
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Keep the joints dry
- Ventilate the bathroom well
Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
When to call us in Cook's Green
Even good sealant eventually discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Black spots in the silicone
- Gaps by the taps
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
What your quote should include
- How to care for the finish
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How changes to the job are handled
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Landlords, agents and businesses in Cook's Green
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
If you manage property in Cook's Green, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
