FAQs for Galmpton
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
How long does a reseal take?
Normally a couple of hours, plus curing time.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Landlord and trade work in Galmpton
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
What we cannot put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Baths
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
What affects the price in Galmpton
We do not charge extra for travel to Galmpton. The price depends on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
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. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Use the extractor fan
- Let steam out after showers
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally around 24 hours.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
