How it works

You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It normally takes about two hours for a bath, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  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

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

  • Leaks at the edges
  • Stained silicone
  • Black mould in the sealant

10 questions to ask before you book

Your questions about bath resealing in Loans

Do you work in Loans?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Loans. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You will get a fixed quote back. There is no obligation to book.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

How to care for the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Keep the joints dry
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner

Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.

Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

What a repair can’t fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Hidden water damage

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we work on in Loans

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

What affects the price in Loans

A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • How much damage there is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What the surface is made of

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. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
