How do I book?

Bath resealing in Hale Common, done in place

Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. We’re frequently asked to fix silicone smeared on tiles and stained silicone, on basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and baths.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Repairs by material

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

Common problems we fix in Hale Common

Poor ventilation speeds things up: damp hangs around, and mould grows faster.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Gaps in the seal
  • An untidy old seal
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray

Questions to ask before booking

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • Who will actually do the work
  • If travel is included in the price

Choosing a repair company

How to care for the repair

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting

Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use.

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Resealing in Hale Common: why it matters

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Why Hale Common clients choose us

  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

What affects the price in Hale Common

We charge the same across the UK, including Hale Common. What changes the price is:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How easy the damage is to reach

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Send photos for a quote

You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

If you are in Hale Common and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Hale Common

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

How it works

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes about two hours for a bath, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Ensure the area is dry

Ask for a price

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
