Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Use the extractor fan

Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Is resealing worth it?

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why Roborough customers choose us

  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Common questions in Roborough

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

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

Do you work in Roborough?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Roborough. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How quickly can you book me in?

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

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

What we do, step by step

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

  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. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Related advice

Landlords, agents and businesses in Roborough

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What we cannot put right

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Repairs by material

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Signs you need bath resealing in Roborough

No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Stained silicone
  • Black mould in the sealant

Questions to ask before booking

  • What preparation is included
  • When it can be used again
  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
