Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a couple of hours.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Repairs by material

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

What a repair can’t fix

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for South Mimms. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • What it’s made of, if you know

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Signs you need bath resealing in South Mimms

Sealant doesn’t last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • Stained silicone
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Unsealed corners

Before you book anyone

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • When it can be used again
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How the colour is matched

Our hiring checklist

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal

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

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Your questions about bath resealing in South Mimms

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Can new silicone go over old?

Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

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

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in South Mimms.
