  • Damp near the bath
  • Black mould in the sealant

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

If you manage property in Pockthorpe, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Pockthorpe questions

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. You are under no obligation.

Do you cover Pockthorpe?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Pockthorpe for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.

How long does a reseal take?

Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

All the old sealant comes out. New silicone won’t bond to old.

Prices and what affects them

Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How much damage there is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your PE31 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Why reseal now?

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is, and it protects everything around the bath. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Why book with us

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • No need to remove anything
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow around two hours.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Open a window if you can

How to get a price

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Open a window after bathing
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Repairs by material

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
