What we are called out for in Shepreth

Poor ventilation speeds things up: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould takes hold.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Unsealed corners
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • A messy previous reseal

Choosing a repair company

Bath resealing at your home in Shepreth

All of the old sealant is cut out, deal with any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. We work on basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks, and the jobs we see most are leaks at the edges and black spots in the silicone.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow around two hours from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

When a repair is not the answer

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Movement in the bath or tray

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Common questions in Shepreth

What happens if you find more damage?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Do you come to Shepreth?

We do. We send a technician to Shepreth for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Normally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Landlord and trade work in Shepreth

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

How to care for the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner

Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing.

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.

How we price bath resealing

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • The type of damage
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The size and number of damaged areas

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

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Natural light rather than flash

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Resealing in Shepreth: why it matters

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: 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.

Why us?

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
