What affects the price in Papworth Everard

Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Access to the area
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Doing more than one item at once

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to get a fixed price

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Bath resealing in Papworth Everard, done in place

A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and resealing puts a stop to that. We work on shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and baths, and the jobs we see most are damp near the bath and stained silicone.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Use the extractor fan

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

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Signs you need bath resealing in Papworth Everard

Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.

People generally call us after spotting one of these:

  • Stained silicone
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Gaps in the seal
  • Leaks at the edges

Why reseal now?

Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why Papworth Everard clients choose us

Landlord and trade work in Papworth Everard

For anyone letting property in or around Papworth Everard, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take about two hours for a bath, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any 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. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Papworth Everard questions

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do you cover the whole of Cambridgeshire?

All of Cambridgeshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

How long does silicone take to cure?

You’ll get the curing time from us, normally around a day.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Damp is the cause. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
