Questions from Fernilee
Do you come to Fernilee?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Fernilee for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What areas do you cover?
The whole UK, including all of Derbyshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath or shower and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

What we do, step by step

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, 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. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
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.
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Use the extractor fan
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Air the room after use
Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
What a repair can’t fix
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Baths
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
Is resealing worth it?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Fernilee. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What affects the price in Fernilee
Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What kind of damage it is
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
