Repairs by material

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Sinks and worktops

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

Questions from Millhayes

When can I use the bath after resealing?

Generally after around 24 hours. We will tell you the exact time.

How long does a reseal take?

Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.

Are there extra charges for Millhayes?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

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

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Do you work in Millhayes?

We do. We send a technician to Millhayes for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally around 24 hours.

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Honest limits

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

  • Baths
  • Basins & vanity units

What we’re called out for in Millhayes

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Gaps in the seal
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • A messy previous reseal

Our hiring checklist

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a couple of hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Ask for a price

To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Advice

Prices and what affects them

Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The type of damage
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether we combine several jobs

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send pictures for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

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.

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

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