What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which usually takes around two hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Our hiring checklist

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

How to care for the repair

To keep it looking its best:

  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal

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

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Questions from Goathurst Common

How soon can you come?

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

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Movement is the usual cause. We fill the bath before sealing it.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.

How long will it take?

Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath or shower and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

What areas do you cover?

All of Kent, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
