Repairs by material

Baths

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

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

What affects the price in High Lane

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

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for High Lane. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Natural light rather than flash

For a price in High Lane, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a couple of hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Related advice

High Lane: your questions answered

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

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

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Keep the joints dry
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Ventilate the bathroom well

Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Resealing in High Lane: why it matters

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is and protects the walls and floor. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why book with us

  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Work done at your home or business

When to call us in High Lane

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Gaps by the taps
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Stained silicone
  • Black mould in the sealant
