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, to open the joint fully.
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
Prices and what affects them
You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How much damage there is
- The material
- 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 is no premium for Speed Gate. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
- A picture taken from further back
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
What a repair cannot fix
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Movement in the bath or tray
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
Why reseal now?
Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Why us?
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- Same prices wherever you are
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- One-year guarantee on every repair
See our prices page.
Do you need bath resealing in Speed Gate?
No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Gaps in the seal
- Black mould in the sealant
Before booking anyone
- How your room will be protected
- Aftercare advice
- How changes to the job are handled
- Whether they match the colour on site
