Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Loxton as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

About our bath resealing in Loxton

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. Typical jobs include stained silicone and gaps by the taps, across baths, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Somerset.

Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Open a window after bathing

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

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

Why reseal now?

Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

What we’re called out for in Loxton

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.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • An untidy old seal
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Unsealed corners

What your quote should include

  • Who turns up on the day
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • If travel is included in the price
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

What we do, step by step

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a couple of hours. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Questions from Loxton

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

How do I book?

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

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

What happens after I send pictures?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Prices and what affects them

You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What the surface is made of

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from pictures

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

For a price in Loxton, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

What a repair cannot fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

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

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
