FAQs for Farnborough

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

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

How much does bath resealing cost in Farnborough?

Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your OX17 postcode.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

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

Bath resealing in Farnborough without replacing anything

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. We work on baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people contact us are old sealant that looks dirty and damp near the bath.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee.

Why it’s worth resealing in Farnborough

Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. 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.

Why Farnborough customers choose us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • No need to remove anything

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal

Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Do you need bath resealing in Farnborough?

In time, even good sealant discolours. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Gaps by the taps
  • Mould you cannot clean out
  • Stained silicone
  • Gaps in the seal

What to look for in a quote

Choosing a repair company

How the visit works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take around two hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

How to get a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

What we cannot put right

We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Hidden water damage

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.

What affects the price in Farnborough

There’s no area surcharge for Farnborough. What changes the price is:

  • The material and finish
  • How many areas need work
  • How many items we do on one visit

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
