FAQs for Silver Street

Can you price it without visiting?

Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.

How do I book?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Typically because the bath or tray moves. We seal baths full of water.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

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

Do you cover Silver Street?

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

Bath resealing in Silver Street, done in place

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. If you are dealing with sealant that’s split or lifting and leaks at the edges, we can help, on shower trays & enclosures, baths and basins & vanity units alike.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Landlord and trade work in Silver Street

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Air the room after use

Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use.

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.

How the visit works

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take around two hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Ask for a price

Advice

What we are called out for in Silver Street

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Gaps in the seal
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Damp near the bath
  • Black mould in the sealant

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

10 questions to ask before booking

What bath resealing costs

Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How much damage there is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Access to the area

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

If you’re in Silver Street and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
