What a repair cannot fix

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we work on in Littleover

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

What happens on the day

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to around two hours.

  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. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Advice

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Shower trays

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

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

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 then the old filler has to be removed first.

Is resealing worth it?

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why book with us

  • A fixed quote before you book
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Landlord and trade work in Littleover

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Signs you need bath resealing in Littleover

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Damp near the bath
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Stained silicone
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting

Questions to ask before you book

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • How the colour is matched
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

10 questions to ask before you book

Common questions in Littleover

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

What does bath resealing cost?

Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Generally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

What affects the price in Littleover

We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • The material
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How many areas need work
  • The colour and finish to match

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Getting a price from pictures

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A photo taken from further back

Most customers in Littleover get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
