All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Gembling and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Open a window after bathing

Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take a couple of hours.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Advice

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

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. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why book with us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • No extra charge for your area

Common questions in Gembling

What does bath resealing cost?

Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

How long before I can shower?

We will give you the curing time.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK, and that includes Gembling. Prices don’t change with location.

Is there a guarantee?

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

When can you do it?

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

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Different materials, different repairs

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

Honest limits

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

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

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

What we work on

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

How we price bath resealing

We do not charge extra for travel to Gembling. The price depends on:

  • How much damage there is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The type of damage

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Gembling. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A picture taken from further back

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.
