FAQs for Pollok

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

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

When can I use the bath after resealing?

We’ll give you the curing time.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

Do you come to Pollok?

We do. Technicians travel to Pollok from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Pollok?

Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

About our bath resealing in Pollok

All of the old sealant is cut out, deal with any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. We regularly repair basins & vanity units, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks, and common reasons people get in touch are silicone smeared on tiles and discoloured, yellow sealant.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

When a repair is not the answer

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • A flexing bath
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

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

Materials we work on in Pollok

  • Baths

What bath resealing costs

Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Common problems we fix in Pollok

Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Leaks at the edges
  • An untidy old seal
  • Sealant that is split or lifting

Questions to ask before booking

  • Who will actually do the work
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How the colour is matched
  • What protection goes down before work starts

Choosing a repair company

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a couple of hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll 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. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Ask for a price

Upload pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Pollok, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Advice

Landlord and trade work in Pollok

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Pollok use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Different materials, different repairs

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

How to look after the repair

Aftercare is simple:

  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Open a window after bathing

Avoid scraping the joints, and do not stand bottles on the seal.

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
