For landlords and businesses

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

About our bath resealing in Hadleigh

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. We work on wet rooms, baths and basins & vanity units, and people most frequently call us about stained silicone and silicone smeared on tiles.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Keep bottles off the joints

Avoid scraping the joints, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Hadleigh: your questions answered

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, so Hadleigh is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

Different materials, different repairs

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Prices and what affects them

Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What kind of damage it is

Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Send pictures for a quote

You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

The process

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes about two hours for a bath, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Get a quote

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
