Mills Hill: your questions answered

How long does a reseal take?

Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.

What does bath resealing cost?

Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.

Are you accredited?

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

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Mills Hill, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a couple of hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

10 questions to ask before you book

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Resealing in Mills Hill: why it matters

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Why book with us

  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Same prices wherever you are

Take a look at our prices page.

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Keep bottles off the joints

Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
