Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Landlord and trade work in Shalford
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
How to care for the repair
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Air the room after use
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

Shalford: your questions answered
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
How long does resealing take?
Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Resealing in Shalford: why it matters
Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
Why book with us
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Same prices wherever you are
- Most jobs done in one visit
Take a look at our prices page.
When we would advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
What we work on
- Basins & vanity units
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
Prices and what affects them
You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- What kind of damage it is
- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from photos
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
For a price in Shalford, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
