For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Hartshorne, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

What affects the price in Hartshorne

There is no area surcharge for Hartshorne. What changes the price is:

  • How many areas need work
  • Access to the area
  • What the surface is made of
  • What kind of damage it is

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Why it’s worth resealing in Hartshorne

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Questions from Hartshorne

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Usually, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Is the work guaranteed?

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

What happens next?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

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, then guarantee it for a year.

What we are called out for in Hartshorne

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: damp hangs around, and mould takes hold.

People generally call us after spotting something like this:

  • Damp near the bath
  • An untidy old seal
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles

  • What preparation is included

How to compare quotes

What we do, step by step

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes about two hours for a bath. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Getting a price

Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your DE11 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

What a repair cannot fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
