Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

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

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Bath resealing in Hoaden, done in place

A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Fresh joints make the whole room look cleaner, and they keep water out. If you’re dealing with missing sealant behind the taps and silicone smeared on tiles, we can generally put it right, on baths, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & sinks alike.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Hoaden and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Honest limits

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Movement in the bath or tray

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we work on in Hoaden

  • Baths

  • Basins & vanity units

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Resealing in Hoaden: 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. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • We leave the room as we found it

What happens on the day

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes around two hours in most cases. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

  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. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

FAQs for Hoaden

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

How long before I can shower?

We’ll give you the curing time.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

Common problems we fix in Hoaden

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould grows faster.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Sealant that is split or lifting
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • Stained silicone

Before booking anyone

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Aftercare advice
