Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner

Use 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, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Putney Vale

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

What happens on the day

You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take around two hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Advice

Signs you need bath resealing in Putney Vale

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning can’t get it all out.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Leaks at the edges
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Gaps in the seal

Questions to ask before booking

  • How soon you can use it again
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • If travel is included in the price
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show

How to compare quotes

Why it’s worth resealing in Putney Vale

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. 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.

Why us?

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • One visit for most repairs
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

What affects the price in Putney Vale

There is no charge for travel to Putney Vale. The price comes down to:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • What the surface is made of
  • Doing more than one item at once

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Repairs by material

Sinks and worktops

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

Baths

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

Putney Vale: your questions answered

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Generally because the bath or tray moves. We seal baths full of water.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

Typically after around 24 hours. We’ll tell you the exact time.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

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