What affects the price in Highfield

Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How hard the colour is to match

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

How to get a fixed quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Upload a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Highfield, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

All of the old sealant is cut out, deal with any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. Whether it’s water getting behind the bath or tray and missing sealant behind the taps, we can help, on shower trays & enclosures, baths and wet rooms alike.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

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

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

Why it’s worth resealing in Highfield

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why us?

  • No need to remove anything
  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

Different materials, different repairs

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

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

How it works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take around two hours, including clearing up.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Advice

Common problems we fix in Highfield

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

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Unsealed corners
  • A messy previous reseal

What to look for in a quote

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show

How to compare quotes

Work for landlords and builders

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

If you manage property in Highfield, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Hidden water damage

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Common questions in Highfield

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Are there extra charges for Highfield?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

What does bath resealing cost?

Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
