Questions from Filton

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Can new silicone go over old?

Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

How long will it take?

A bath or shower usually takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

Bath resealing in Filton, done in place

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. Typical jobs include water getting behind the bath or tray and old sealant that looks dirty, in shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Filton and across South Gloucestershire.

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a couple of hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Honest limits

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Hidden water damage

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

Materials we work on in Filton

  • Baths
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Wet rooms

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

Common problems we fix in Filton

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed while the bath was empty.

Common reasons people in Filton contact us are:

  • Stained silicone
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Gaps by the taps

What your quote should include

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Aftercare advice
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

Choosing a repair company

How we price bath resealing

We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material and finish
  • How many items we do on one visit

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send photos for a quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A picture taken from further back

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple:

  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Air the room after use

Good ventilation is the best protection, 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’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Landlord and trade work in Filton

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Filton use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Why it’s worth resealing in Filton

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
