How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take around two hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Advice

Landlord and trade work in Mappleton

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

For anyone letting property in or around Mappleton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

When to call us in Mappleton

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould grows faster.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed:

  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • A messy previous reseal

Before you book anyone

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How to look after the finish

10 questions to ask before booking

What we cannot put right

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • A flexing bath
  • Hidden water damage
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Why it’s worth resealing in Mappleton

Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Why us?

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Repairs by material

Sinks and worktops

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

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Questions from Mappleton

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

What do you need from me?

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

How long does resealing take?

A bath or shower typically takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

How to look after the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal

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

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

Prices and what affects them

We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from pictures

You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.
