Questions from Cranworth

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the whole UK, including Cranworth and the rest of Norfolk. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

Will the price change on the day?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

What does bath resealing cost?

Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

How long does a reseal take?

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

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

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

About our bath resealing in Cranworth

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. We regularly repair kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures, and the jobs we see most are missing sealant behind the taps and discoloured, yellow sealant.

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

Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Open a window after bathing
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in

Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Prices and what affects them

Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send photos for a quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any details about the material

Most customers in Cranworth get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

How it works

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes about two hours for a bath, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Landlord and trade work in Cranworth

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What we’re called out for in Cranworth

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning cannot get it all out.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Sealant that is split or lifting
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Leaks at the edges

Comparing quotes

  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How soon you can use it again

10 questions to ask before booking

Different materials, different repairs

Baths

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

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

What we can’t put right

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • A flexing bath
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
