What a repair cannot fix

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Bath resealing in Sharnal Street, done in place

A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. We work on basins & vanity units, baths and wet rooms, and the jobs we see most are stained silicone and black mould in the sealant.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Common problems we fix in Sharnal Street

In time, even good sealant discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Leaks at the edges
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Unsealed corners
  • Silicone smeared on tiles

Before you book anyone

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How the colour is matched
  • How soon you can use it again
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included

Our hiring checklist

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

How it works

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for about two hours for a bath from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Related advice

Sharnal Street: your questions answered

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Something is moving. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

How long does silicone take to cure?

You will get the curing time from us, typically around a day.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Prices and what affects them

There is no area surcharge for Sharnal Street. The price reflects:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Access to the area
  • The size and number of damaged areas

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Quotes from your photos

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • Any details about the material
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Aftercare tips

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Dry the seal after bathing

Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
