Flagg questions

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

What happens next?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

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

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

What does bath resealing cost?

Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

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. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Hollow or loose tiles

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Signs you need bath resealing in Flagg

Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed with the bath empty.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Gaps by the taps
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Leaks at the edges

What your quote should include

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

10 questions to ask before booking

Prices and what affects them

We charge the same across the UK, including Flagg. The price reflects:

  • The material and finish
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Quotes from your pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any details about the material

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for around two hours. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

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

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Air the room after use

Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.
