DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Prices and what affects them

Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What the surface is made of

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Send us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Haughley Green, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Do you need bath resealing in Haughley Green?

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed with the bath empty.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Gaps in the seal

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • How long it needs to cure
  • How the room is protected while they work

Our hiring checklist

What a repair can’t fix

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • A flexing bath
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Repairs by material

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

How to look after the repair

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off

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

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Questions from Haughley Green

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

You will get the curing time from us.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a couple of hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. We ensure the joint is completely dry.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Open a window if you can

Ask for a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
