FAQs for Heston

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath or shower and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Bath resealing in Heston, done in place

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Typical jobs include mould you can’t clean out and missing sealant behind the taps, in wet rooms, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

When we would advise against a repair

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • A flexing bath
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.

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.

Resealing in Heston: why it matters

Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Shower trays

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

Baths

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

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Air the room after use

Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

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

How we price bath resealing

There’s no charge for travel to Heston. The price comes down to:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material and finish

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from pictures

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Do you need bath resealing in Heston?

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

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Stained silicone
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • How soon you can use it again

10 questions to ask before you book

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take around two hours.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Ask for a price
