Choosing a repair company

How we handle bath resealing in Shackleford

A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and resealing puts a stop to that. Whether it’s black spots in the silicone and silicone coming away from the tiles, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Why reseal now?

Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why us?

  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • No extra charge for your area
  • One visit for most repairs
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

Landlords, agents and businesses in Shackleford

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

What we cannot put right

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Movement in the bath or tray

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

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

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Air the room after use
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers

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

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

Prices and what affects them

You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The type of damage
  • The material and finish
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How much damage there is

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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • One picture of the whole bath or shower
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.

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 a couple of hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Clear the area around the damage

Ask for a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower, we can give you a fixed price.
