Common questions in Risinghurst

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Can new silicone go over old?

We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Are you accredited?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

You’ll get the curing time from us, normally around a day.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

How do I book?

Bath resealing in Risinghurst without replacing anything

Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Fresh joints make the entire room look cleaner, and they protect the walls and floor. Our technicians work on kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and baths, and common reasons people contact us are mould you can’t clean out and damp near the bath.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Shower trays

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

How to care for the repair

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Air the room after use
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally around 24 hours.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Is resealing worth it?

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

What bath resealing costs

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

  • How many areas need work
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from photos

You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Any details about the material
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Risinghurst, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow about two hours for a bath from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  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. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

What we’re called out for in Risinghurst

Poor ventilation speeds things up: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould grows faster.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • A messy previous reseal
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Sealant that is split or lifting

What your quote should include

  • How soon you can use it again
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

How to compare quotes

Landlords, agents and businesses in Risinghurst

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

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.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
