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

Materials we repair

  • Wet rooms
  • Shower trays & enclosures

FAQs for Farnham

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Do you cover the whole of Suffolk?

The whole UK, including all of Suffolk. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Something is moving. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Keeping it looking good

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Open a window after bathing
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, typically around 24 hours.

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Landlord and trade work in Farnham

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a couple of hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Our hiring checklist

What affects the price in Farnham

You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What the surface is made of

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

For a price in Farnham, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Is resealing worth it?

Putting new silicone over old does not last. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why us?

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
