Resealing in Ridgeway Cross: why it matters

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Questions from Ridgeway Cross

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

How long before I can shower?

We’ll give you the curing time, generally around a day.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working.

How do I book?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Prices and what affects them

A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How much damage there is

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • Any details about the material
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

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. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Honest limits

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Hollow or loose tiles

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we work on in Ridgeway Cross

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

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers

Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

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

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down 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. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
