Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

About our bath resealing in Horn Hill

We cut out all of the old sealant, deal with any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. Whether it’s a messy previous reseal and gaps in the seal, we can help, on baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and wet rooms alike.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Resealing in Horn Hill: why it matters

Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

When to call us in Horn Hill

In time, even good sealant discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Sealant that is split or lifting
  • Stained silicone
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Leaks at the edges

What your quote should include

  • Who turns up on the day
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

What a repair cannot fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

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

Materials we work on in Horn Hill

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

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

How to care for the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner

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

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Prices and what affects them

Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • The type of damage
  • The material and finish
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many items we do on one visit

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. 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.

Quotes from your pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.
