Questions from Dunsville

Is repairing better than replacing?

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

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.

Do you work in Dunsville?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Dunsville. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How we handle bath resealing in Dunsville

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Typical jobs include missing sealant behind the taps and water getting behind the bath or tray, across wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Why it’s worth resealing in Dunsville

Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Common problems we fix in Dunsville

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

People typically call us after spotting something like this:

  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Gaps in the seal
  • Missing sealant behind the taps

Comparing quotes

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What protection goes down before work starts

Choosing a repair company

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal

Avoid scraping the joints, and do not stand bottles on the seal.

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Repairs by material

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

Baths

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

When a repair isn’t the answer

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • A flexing bath

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

How it works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes around two hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
