Questions from Seaside

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Movement is the usual cause. We fill the bath before sealing it.

How long does a reseal take?

Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

Typically after around 24 hours. We’ll tell you the exact time.

Bath resealing in Seaside without replacing anything

A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they protect the walls and floor. Typical jobs include silicone coming away from the tiles and discoloured, yellow sealant, on shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Air the room after use
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in

Avoid scraping the joints, and do not stand bottles on the seal.

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.

Signs you need bath resealing in Seaside

Sealant does not last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • An untidy old seal
  • Missing sealant behind the taps

Questions to ask before booking

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Who will actually do the work

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow around two hours. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Resealing in Seaside: why it matters

Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Seaside. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why Seaside clients choose us

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Work done at your home or business

Prices and what affects them

We do not charge extra for travel to Seaside. The price comes down to:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The colour and finish to match

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any details about the material
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Most customers in Seaside get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Landlord and trade work in Seaside

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Seaside use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Sinks and worktops

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
