DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What else we do in Hutton
Landlord and trade work in Hutton
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
How to look after the repair
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Air the room after use
- Keep the joints dry
- Store bottles on a shelf
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
What a repair can’t fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Basins & vanity units
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Baths
When to call us in Hutton
Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed while the bath was empty.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Sealant that is split or lifting
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Leaks at the edges
- Stained silicone

Prices and what affects them
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether we combine several jobs
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- Details of any past repairs
- Where you are, by postcode
- A picture taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we are there, the work takes about two hours for a bath for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- We make sure the joint is completely dry.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.
How to prepare
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Open a window if you can
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Ask for a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
