Honest limits

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

What we work on

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

Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

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

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

FAQs for East Dean

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Do you work in East Dean?

We do. Repair technicians travel to East Dean from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

How long will it take?

Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.

How much does bath resealing cost in East Dean?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

How long before I can shower?

You’ll get the curing time from us, typically around a day.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Landlord and trade work in East Dean

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

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Air the room after use
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Keep bottles off the joints

Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

The process

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It generally takes a couple of hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Resealing in East Dean: why it matters

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why book with us

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

What we are called out for in East Dean

No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant

What to look for in a quote

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Aftercare advice
  • How long it needs to cure
