Landlord and trade work in Hartwood
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hartwood as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Bath resealing in Hartwood 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 so many DIY reseals peel. Common call-outs are for stained silicone and unsealed corners, in shower trays & enclosures, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Repairs by material
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
How it works
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take about two hours for a bath, including clearing up.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Your questions about bath resealing in Hartwood
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
How long does resealing take?
Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Hartwood included. There is no extra charge for travel.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
When to call us in Hartwood
A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: damp hangs around, and mould grows faster.
Look out for these signs:
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- A messy previous reseal
- Black mould in the sealant

What else we do in Hartwood
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
What affects the price in Hartwood
We do not charge extra for travel to Hartwood. The price depends on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Access to the area
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- The material, if you know it
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Let steam out after showers
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.
Why reseal now?
Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
