How to look after the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in

Avoid scraping the joints, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Bath resealing in Fairfield, done in place

We reseal baths, shower trays, basins and worktops. A typical reseal takes a couple of hours, plus curing time. If you’re dealing with a messy previous reseal and silicone coming away from the tiles, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

Is resealing worth it?

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is and protects the walls and floor. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. 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.

What you get with us

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

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

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Common questions in Fairfield

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do you work in Fairfield?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Fairfield from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.

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

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath or shower and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Fairfield as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Prices and what affects them

There is no charge for travel to Fairfield. The price depends on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material and finish

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:

  • Any details about the material
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

For a price in Fairfield, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

The process

You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It usually takes about two hours for a bath, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Open a window if you can

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

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