The process

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes about two hours for a bath. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We ensure the joint is completely dry.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Advice

Common problems we fix in Over Tabley

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould grows faster.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Gaps in the seal
  • An untidy old seal
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Leaks at the edges

Comparing quotes

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How to look after the finish
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

10 questions to ask before you book

Over Tabley: your questions answered

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Over Tabley.

How long does silicone take to cure?

We’ll give you the curing time.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Over Tabley

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Over Tabley as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • A flexing bath
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Hidden water damage

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Dry the seal after bathing

Avoid scraping the joints, and do not stand bottles on the seal.

Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

What affects the price in Over Tabley

There is no charge for travel to Over Tabley. The price depends on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Access to the area

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The material, if you know it
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
