How to compare quotes

When a repair isn’t the answer

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

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

Materials we repair

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

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

What bath resealing costs

Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage
  • The material and finish
  • How many items we do on one visit

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

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.

What we do, step by step

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a couple of hours. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

How to get a price

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Air the room after use
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Dry the seal after bathing

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, usually around 24 hours.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Manselton as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

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