Common questions in Snelston Common
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
What does bath resealing cost?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Damp is the cause. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
Bath resealing at your home in Snelston Common
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. We regularly repair basins & vanity units, baths and shower trays & enclosures, and the jobs we see most are missing sealant behind the taps and gaps in the seal.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee.

Landlord and trade work in Snelston Common
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Snelston Common as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
When we would advise against a repair
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

- Typically one visit, start to finish

- Rooms protected and left tidy

Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
What happens on the day
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a couple of hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We ensure the joint is completely dry.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Advice
Different materials, different repairs
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
When to call us in Snelston Common
Joints split if the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- An untidy old seal
- Black mould in the sealant
- Stained silicone
- Gaps by the taps
Questions to ask before booking
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- What prep work is covered
Prices and what affects them
We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Snelston Common. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
You can take the photos on your phone. Just make sure we can see:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
- Any details about the material
- Where you are, by postcode
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
