Perrywood questions

What do you need from me?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

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

What happens after I send pictures?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

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

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Bath resealing in Perrywood, done in place

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. We regularly repair wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and baths, and common reasons people contact us are stained silicone and black mould in the sealant.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Perrywood and across Kent.

Resealing in Perrywood: why it matters

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why book with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • No need to remove anything
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Take a look at our pricing.

What we can’t put right

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Hidden water damage
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

When to call us in Perrywood

No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Gaps by the taps
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • An untidy old seal

What your quote should include

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How your room will be protected
  • Who will actually do the work
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included

Landlords, agents and businesses in Perrywood

For anyone letting property in or around Perrywood, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What affects the price in Perrywood

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

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material
  • Access to the area
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your photos

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Details of any past repairs
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: 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.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

The process

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which typically takes around two hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Clear the area around the damage

How to get a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Advice

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
