How it works

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for about two hours for a bath from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We ensure the joint is completely dry.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Parkgate questions

Are you a vetted contractor?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

How long will it take?

Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

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

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath or shower and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What we’re called out for in Parkgate

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Unsealed corners
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant

Questions to ask before you book

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Aftercare advice
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

Choosing a repair company

What affects the price in Parkgate

We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material
  • The size and number of damaged areas

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

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, and the work is guaranteed.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Parkgate

If you manage property in Parkgate, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Parkgate as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Store bottles on a shelf

Avoid scraping the joints, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
