Landlords, agents and businesses in Ridgeway
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Open a window after bathing
- Keep the joints dry
- Ventilate the bathroom well
Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.
Common problems we fix in Ridgeway
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning cannot get it all out.
The things customers usually mention when they call include:
- Leaks at the edges
- Stained silicone
- Gaps in the seal
- Silicone smeared on tiles
What your quote should include
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How the colour is matched
- What prep work is covered
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Why reseal now?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why book with us
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Nothing taken out or refitted

How the visit works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow about two hours for a bath, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Open a window if you can

FAQs for Ridgeway
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Damp is the cause. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
How long does resealing take?
Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone will not bond to old.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
What we cannot put right
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Hollow or loose tiles
