South Hornchurch questions
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
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.
Is resealing worth it?
Resealing costs very little and protects the walls and floor. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Why us?
- One visit for most repairs
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Every repair guaranteed for a year

Repairs by material
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
What we’re called out for in South Hornchurch
No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Stained silicone
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Silicone smeared on tiles
Before booking anyone
- Aftercare advice
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether they match the colour on site
- When it can be used again
How to care for the repair
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Open a window after bathing
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.
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.
