Landlord and trade work in Snittongate
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Shropshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
How we handle bath resealing in Snittongate
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’re frequently asked to fix gaps by the taps and a messy previous reseal, on basins & vanity units, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Common questions in Snittongate
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.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Shropshire.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone won’t bond to old.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.
How long does resealing take?
A bath or shower generally takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
What a repair cannot fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- A flexing bath
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

How the visit works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It normally takes a couple of hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Prices and what affects them
Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Access to the area
- The material
- Whether we combine several jobs
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A photo taken from further back
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
Why it’s worth resealing in Snittongate
