Choosing a repair company

Bath resealing in Ropsley, done in place

A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they keep water out. We’re frequently asked to fix sealant that’s split or lifting and leaks at the edges, on baths, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

How to care for the repair

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Let steam out after showers

Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.

Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Shower trays

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

Resealing in Ropsley: why it matters

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why book with us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • No extra charge for your area

How it works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a couple of hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Clear the area around the damage

How to get a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Prices and what affects them

You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Access to the area
  • How much damage there is
  • The material

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Send pictures for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A photo taken from further back
  • The material, if you know it

Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Ropsley, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Common questions in Ropsley

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Lincolnshire.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Ropsley

Rental properties take more wear, 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.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
