FAQs for Portadown

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

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

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath or shower and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

How long does a reseal take?

Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

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

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

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Bath resealing in Portadown without replacing anything

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. We work on wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks, and the jobs we see most are unsealed corners and sealant that’s split or lifting.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Portadown and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Work for landlords and builders

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Keeping it looking good

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Keep the joints dry
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Air the room after use

Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

Resealing in Portadown: why it matters

Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Portadown. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why us?

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

Do you need bath resealing in Portadown?

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould takes hold.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed:

  • Leaks at the edges
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Gaps in the seal

What your quote should include

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Aftercare advice
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • How long it needs to cure

Choosing a repair company

When a repair is not the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

How we price bath resealing

We do not charge extra for travel to Portadown. The price comes down to:

  • The type of damage
  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How hard the colour is to match

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send pictures for a quote

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.

The process

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes a couple of hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Ensure the area is dry

How to get a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
