Landlords, agents and businesses in Scarning

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Scarning as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

About our bath resealing in Scarning

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. Our technicians work on wet rooms, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks, and people most frequently call us about sealant that’s split or lifting and silicone smeared on tiles.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Scarning and across Norfolk.

Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

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

Shower trays

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

Common questions in Scarning

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

How long does resealing take?

Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Can new silicone go over old?

Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

Do you come to Scarning?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Scarning. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

What does bath resealing cost?

Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.

Common problems we fix in Scarning

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould grows faster.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Gaps by the taps
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray

Choosing a repair company

Is resealing worth it?

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes about two hours for a bath. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Getting a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

What bath resealing costs

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

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send photos for a quote

You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Store bottles on a shelf

Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly 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 will say if you need a builder or plumber.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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

For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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.
