How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take about two hours for a bath, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

FAQs for Sixpenny Handley

Do you cover the entire of Wiltshire?

We cover the entire UK, including Sixpenny Handley and the rest of Wiltshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Is repairing better than replacing?

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

Do you work in Sixpenny Handley?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Sixpenny Handley and the rest of Wiltshire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

How long before I can shower?

Normally about a day later. We will tell you the exact time.

Can new silicone go over old?

No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Sixpenny Handley

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

When we’d advise against a repair

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Movement in the bath or tray

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

When to call us in Sixpenny Handley

No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:

  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • Silicone smeared on tiles

What your quote should include

  • What prep work is covered
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How your room will be protected

Our hiring checklist

Why it’s worth resealing in Sixpenny Handley

Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Air the room after use
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner

Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Prices and what affects them

There’s no area surcharge for Sixpenny Handley. What changes the price is:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many areas need work
  • The type of damage

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

Send photos for a quote

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

If you are in Sixpenny Handley and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
