Repairs by material

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Shower trays

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

Bath resealing in Lane End, done in place

A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. We’re frequently asked to fix gaps in the seal and discoloured, yellow sealant, on wet rooms, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Dry the seal after bathing

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.

Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Prices and what affects them

Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How much damage there is

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
