Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Hollow or loose tiles

  • Movement in the bath or tray

Hurstwood: your questions answered

What does bath resealing cost?

We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.

What happens if you find more damage?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Do you charge for travel?

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

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

What happens after I send photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

How long does silicone take to cure?

We’ll give you the curing time, usually around a day.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

All the old sealant comes out. New silicone will not bond to old.

Is resealing worth it?

Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. 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 combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Choosing a repair company

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Keep the joints dry

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

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow a couple of hours.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Open a window if you can

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Landlord and trade work in Hurstwood

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

Different materials, different repairs

Baths

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

Shower trays

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