South Bockhampton questions

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Can tenants book a repair?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

About our bath resealing in South Bockhampton

Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Fresh joints make the whole room look cleaner, and they keep water out. We work on kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and baths, and the jobs we see most are black mould in the sealant and missing sealant behind the taps.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back.

When we would advise against a repair

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • Hidden water damage
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • A flexing bath

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

Surfaces we repair

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

When to call us in South Bockhampton

Poor ventilation speeds things up: damp hangs around, and mould grows faster.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Stained silicone
  • Damp near the bath
  • Mould you cannot clean out
  • An untidy old seal

Choosing a repair company

What bath resealing costs

We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material
  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Quotes from your photos

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Details of any past repairs

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

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

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Resealing in South Bockhampton: why it matters

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Work done at your home or business

The process

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes around two hours, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  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. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Ensure the area is dry

Getting a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
