What affects the price in Kintbury
You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How much damage there is
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Details of any past repairs
- The material, if you know it
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Keep the joints dry
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
Common problems we fix in Kintbury
Even good sealant eventually discolours. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Why reseal now?
A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Why us?
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- We leave the room as we found it
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Work done at your home or business

When we’d advise against a repair
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Basins & vanity units
