How to care for the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal

Run 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. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

Perry Barr questions

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

All the old sealant comes out. New silicone will not bond to old.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Hidden water damage
  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

What bath resealing costs

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of
  • How much damage there is
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Quotes from your photos

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

When to call us in Perry Barr

No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Mould you cannot clean out
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • A messy previous reseal

What to look for in a quote

  • When it can be used again
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How to care for the finish
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

10 questions to ask before booking

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes around two hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

How to get a price

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Related advice

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Perry Barr use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Resealing in Perry Barr: why it matters

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
