What we can’t put right

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • A flexing bath
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Do you need bath resealing in Little Canfield?

No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

Clients normally contact us about:

  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What prep work is covered
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What protection goes down before work starts

Choosing a repair company

Different materials, different repairs

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

How to look after the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Air the room after use
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers

Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

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

What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a couple of hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Why it’s worth resealing in Little Canfield

Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
