Aftercare tips

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

  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Air the room after use

Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use.

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

Bath resealing in Lowgill, done in place

Baths, trays, basins and kitchen worktops all get resealed using mould-resistant silicone. A typical reseal takes a couple of hours. We work on shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and baths, and people most often call us about old sealant that looks dirty and leaks at the edges.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Sinks and worktops

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

Shower trays

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

Honest limits

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • A flexing bath

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What we are called out for in Lowgill

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning can’t get it all out.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Sealant that is split or lifting
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Black mould in the sealant

Why it’s worth resealing in Lowgill

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What you get with us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • A fixed quote before booking

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes about two hours for a bath. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Ask for a price

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Landlord and trade work in Lowgill

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Common questions in Lowgill

What happens next?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
