Landlords, agents and businesses in Crostwick

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Crostwick use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Norfolk and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

When a repair is not the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

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

Materials we repair

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

Do you need bath resealing in Crostwick?

Sealant does not last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • An untidy old seal
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Damp near the bath
  • Gaps in the seal

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • How soon you can use it again

How we price bath resealing

Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • What the surface is made of
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Crostwick. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes about two hours for a bath. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We ensure the joint is completely dry.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Getting a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

Advice

Crostwick: your questions answered

Do you cover the whole of Norfolk?

All of Norfolk, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can new silicone go over old?

Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Generally because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Shower trays

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

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Store bottles on a shelf

Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Resealing in Crostwick: why it matters

Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
