Landlord and trade work in Kirby Cane
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
Bath resealing at your home in Kirby Cane
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. We work on wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units, and the jobs we see most are leaks at the edges and a messy previous reseal.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

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, a professional repair is worth it.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
What affects the price in Kirby Cane
There’s no area surcharge for Kirby Cane. What changes the price is:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material and finish
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
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.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Natural light rather than flash
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- Where you are, by postcode
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Signs you need bath resealing in Kirby Cane
Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.
Most people contact us after spotting one of these:
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Damp near the bath
- An untidy old seal
- Old sealant that looks dirty
What to look for in a quote
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- What protection goes down before work starts
How to look after the repair
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Air the room after use
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
What we can’t put right
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Hidden water damage
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Wet rooms
- Baths
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the work takes a couple of hours in most cases. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- 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
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Clear the area around the damage
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
How to get a price
