Hacklinge questions

Is it messy?

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

What does bath resealing cost?

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

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

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

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Normally because the bath or tray moves. We seal baths full of water.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Bath resealing in Hacklinge without replacing anything

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Common call-outs are for gaps in the seal and unsealed corners, on wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

What a repair can’t fix

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • A flexing bath
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Hacklinge, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.

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

The process

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a couple of hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.

How to prepare

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Choosing a repair company

What affects the price in Hacklinge

There’s no area surcharge for Hacklinge. The price reflects:

  • What the surface is made of
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The colour and finish to match

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.

Quotes from your photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Keeping it looking good

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, typically around 24 hours.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
