What happens on the day

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a couple of hours.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled 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.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know about parking or access

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Do you need bath resealing in Dunoon?

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed while the bath was empty.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Leaks at the edges
  • An untidy old seal
  • Unsealed corners

What to look for in a quote

Choosing a repair company

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Dunoon

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Dunoon use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

For anyone letting property in or around Dunoon, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Dunoon: your questions answered

Will it make a mess?

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

Do you work in Dunoon?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Dunoon and the rest of Argyll and Bute. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you quote from pictures?

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

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.

What happens after I send pictures?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

Why reseal now?

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner

Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

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

Prices and what affects them

You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

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