What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow about two hours for a bath.

  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. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

About our bath resealing in Sandy Cross

We cut out all of the old sealant, treat any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. Common call-outs are for unsealed corners and mould you can’t clean out, in basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Sandy Cross and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Store bottles on a shelf

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

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Sandy Cross

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Common problems we fix in Sandy Cross

In time, even good sealant discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • An untidy old seal
  • Black spots in the silicone

Before booking anyone

  • What prep work is covered
  • Who will actually do the work
  • How soon you can use it again
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show

Our hiring checklist

What affects the price in Sandy Cross

A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What kind of damage it is

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Quotes from your pictures

You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Most clients in Sandy Cross get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Resealing in Sandy Cross: why it matters

Putting new silicone over old does not last. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

Take a look at our pricing.

When we would advise against a repair

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • A flexing bath

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

Sandy Cross: your questions answered

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Sandy Cross. Prices do not change with location.

How long does a reseal take?

Normally a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Do you cover Sandy Cross?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Sandy Cross and the rest of Surrey. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.

Do I need to be at home?

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

Can new silicone go over old?

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