Questions from Flamstead

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

How long does silicone take to cure?

Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

How soon can you come?

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

Landlord and trade work in Flamstead

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Flamstead as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Why reseal now?

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. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What you get with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • We leave the room as we found it

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

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.

Common problems we fix in Flamstead

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • An untidy old seal
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray

What your quote should include

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Who will actually do the work
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

Choosing a repair company

What a repair cannot fix

We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

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

Materials we repair

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

How the visit works

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes around two hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  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

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Clear the area around the damage

What bath resealing costs

We don’t charge extra for travel to Flamstead. The price depends on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What the surface is made of

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.

How to get a fixed price

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Something in shot to show the size

To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
