What we’re called out for in Moreton

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning can’t get it all out.

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

  • Gaps by the taps
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Mould you can’t clean out

What your quote should include

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What protection goes down before work starts

How to compare quotes

Landlord and trade work in Moreton

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes around two hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Clear the area around the damage

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Prices and what affects them

A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material
  • Access to the area

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 price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Getting a price from photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any details about the material
  • Natural light rather than flash

Upload a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your CH46 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Repairs by material

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Use the extractor fan

Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

What a repair can’t fix

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • A flexing bath

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Common questions in Moreton

Do you seal over the old sealant?

We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone will not bond to old.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

How long will it take?

Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

What does bath resealing cost?

Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your CH46 postcode.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

How long before I can shower?

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

Can you price it without visiting?

Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
