Our hiring checklist

How we handle bath resealing in Shireoaks

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. If you are dealing with black mould in the sealant and discoloured, yellow sealant, we can help, on kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and baths alike.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

What we cannot put right

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Movement in the bath or tray

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a couple of hours in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Why it’s worth resealing in Shireoaks

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why book with us

  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Work done at your home or business

See our prices page.

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Use the extractor fan

Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, 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, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

FAQs for Shireoaks

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you price it without visiting?

Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Do you work in Shireoaks?

We do. Technicians travel to Shireoaks from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What information do you need?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Prices and what affects them

A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material and finish
  • How many areas need work
  • Access to the area

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any details about the material
  • Details of any past repairs

If you are in Shireoaks and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
