FAQs for Penkridge
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
What does bath resealing cost?
Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Penkridge
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Resealing in Penkridge: why it matters
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is and protects the walls and floor. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to look after the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Use the extractor fan
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Air the room after use
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
Honest limits
We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
