What we are called out for in Horsforth

Poor ventilation speeds things up: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould takes hold.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Gaps in the seal
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Black mould in the sealant

How to compare quotes

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What we can’t put right

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

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

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

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

How it works

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. 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. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Ask for a price

How to care for the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off

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

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Horsforth questions

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Do you cover Horsforth?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Horsforth for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

How do I book?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

What happens if you find more damage?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
