How we handle bath resealing in Kingston

All of the old sealant is cut out, deal with any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. Typical jobs include mould you can’t clean out and sealant that’s split or lifting, on baths, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for about two hours for a bath from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

If you manage property in Kingston, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Kingston: your questions answered

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

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Do you work in Kingston?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Kingston from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

When a repair is not the answer

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • A flexing bath
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we work on in Kingston

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

Prices and what affects them

We charge the same across the UK, including Kingston. The price reflects:

  • How many areas need work
  • The material
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How easy the damage is to reach

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower
  • Where you are, by postcode

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Different materials, different repairs

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
