Different materials, different repairs

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

Baths

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

What happens on the day

We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a couple of hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Why it’s worth resealing in Rochester Riverside

Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why Rochester Riverside clients choose us

  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Honest limits

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

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

What we work on

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

FAQs for Rochester Riverside

Do you cover the entire of Medway?

All of Medway, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

How long does resealing take?

Usually a couple of hours, plus curing time.

Can new silicone go over old?

All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Normally because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Prices and what affects them

There’s no charge for travel to Rochester Riverside. The price depends on:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material and finish
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed price

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The material, if you know it

Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Rochester Riverside, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
