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

Common questions in Newbury

Do I have to be there?

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

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

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

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath or shower and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Newbury?

Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do you cover Newbury?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Newbury from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What happens after I send pictures?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

How the visit works

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a couple of hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Common problems we fix in Newbury

Sealant does not last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Black mould in the sealant

What your quote should include

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • When it can be used again
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What prep work is covered

Choosing a repair company

What a repair can’t fix

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • A flexing bath
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

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

What we work on

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

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Keep the joints dry
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers

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

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Newbury

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Newbury use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Why it’s worth resealing in Newbury

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Newbury. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Can I fix it myself?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
