Repairs by material
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Bath resealing in Elrig without replacing anything
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and a new seal stops it. Our technicians work on baths, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures, and people most often call us about gaps by the taps and black mould in the sealant.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What affects the price in Elrig
Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The type of damage
- The material
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking.
Send pictures for a quote
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A photo taken from further back
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Other services in Elrig
Landlord and trade work in Elrig
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Elrig as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
What happens on the day
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes around two hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let us know which floor the room is on

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Do you come to Elrig?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Elrig for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Normally because the bath or tray moves. We fill the bath before sealing it.

Resealing in Elrig: why it matters
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Let steam out after showers
- Keep the joints dry
Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
