What your bath or shower is made of matters

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Sandon questions

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

How long does a reseal take?

A bath or shower usually takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.

Will you leave a mess?

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

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Air the room after use
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Dry the seal after bathing

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

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

What we cannot put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Sandon

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

The process

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes around two hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Related advice

Is resealing worth it?

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Generally one visit, start to finish

What bath resealing costs

We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Send photos for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any details about the material
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
