FAQs for Scadabhagh

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

Does someone need to be in?

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

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

How long does resealing take?

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

Do you cover Scadabhagh?

We do. We send a technician to Scadabhagh for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Are there extra charges for Scadabhagh?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes around two hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Ask for a price

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

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

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.

What a repair can’t fix

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

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

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

Materials we work on in Scadabhagh

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

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.

Landlord and trade work in Scadabhagh

For anyone letting property in or around Scadabhagh, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Scadabhagh use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed price

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A photo taken from further back

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
