Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Keep the joints dry
Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

When we would advise against a repair
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Wet rooms
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
Pelton Fell: your questions answered
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you price it without visiting?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
Prices and what affects them
Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How much damage there is
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.
What we’re called out for in Pelton Fell
Sealant does not last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Gaps by the taps
- A messy previous reseal
- Damp near the bath
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
What to look for in a quote
- How your room will be protected
- How soon you can use it again
- How the colour is matched
- Who will actually do the work
