Landlords, agents and businesses in High Roding
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.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
How we handle bath resealing in High Roding
A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. Our repair technicians work on basins & vanity units, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures, and people most frequently call us about black mould in the sealant and stained silicone.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Questions from High Roding
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
When to call us in High Roding
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- An untidy old seal
- Damp near the bath
- Mould you can’t clean out
- Stained silicone
Before you book anyone
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What preparation is included
- How to look after the finish
- How the room is protected while they work
When a repair isn’t the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Wet rooms
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
Is resealing worth it?
A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. 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.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
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, and the work is guaranteed.
Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Air the room after use
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, typically around 24 hours.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
The process
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a couple of hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
Getting a price
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.
Advice
What your bath or shower is made of matters
