FAQs for North Featherstone
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
How long before I can shower?
Normally about a day later. We’ll tell you the exact time.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Usually poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Generally because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.
About our bath resealing in North Featherstone
Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Fresh joints make the entire room look cleaner, and they keep water out. Our repair technicians work on kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and baths, and people most frequently call us about a messy previous reseal and damp near the bath.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Resealing in North Featherstone: why it matters
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why us?
- Normally one visit, start to finish
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- A year’s guarantee on all work

Landlords, agents and businesses in North Featherstone
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.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
Prices and what affects them
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The type of damage
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send pictures for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A photo taken from further back
- Where you are, by postcode
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.

When we would advise against a repair
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Wet rooms
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Air the room after use
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Advice
Signs you need bath resealing in North Featherstone
No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Black mould in the sealant
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Unsealed corners
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
Before you book anyone
- How the colour is matched
- When it can be used again
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- How changes to the job are handled
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
