Related advice
What we’re called out for in Lower Hardres
Sealant does not last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- An untidy old seal
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Gaps by the taps
- Mould you can’t clean out

- How your room will be protected
- Aftercare advice
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
What affects the price in Lower Hardres
You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Access to the area
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What the surface is made of
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- The material, if you know it
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A photo taken from further back
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.

For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
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.
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Use the extractor fan
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Give the seal a regular clean
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
When we’d advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- A flexing bath
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Baths
