Different materials, different repairs

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

Sinks and worktops

Bath resealing in Nettleton, done in place

We cut out all of the old sealant, deal with any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. We regularly repair baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures, and the jobs we see most are mould you can’t clean out and missing sealant behind the taps.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

FAQs for Nettleton

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

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

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

How long will it take?

Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.

Do you come to Nettleton?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Nettleton from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

How long does silicone take to cure?

Normally about a day later. We will tell you the exact time.

Do you cover the whole of Lincolnshire?

Across the UK, and that includes Nettleton. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Work for landlords and builders

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It generally takes around two hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  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. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Honest limits

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

  • Hidden water damage
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

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

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing costs very little. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
