Common problems we fix in Easington Lane
A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould grows faster.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Gaps in the seal
- Stained silicone
- Black spots in the silicone

What we do, step by step
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a couple of hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice
Why reseal now?
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. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Why us?
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- We leave the room as we found it
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Most jobs done in one visit

Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Repairs by material
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
Prices and what affects them
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
- How many areas need work
- Unusual colours or finishes
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
