Questions from Spennithorne

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.

How long does a reseal take?

Typically a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.

Can landlords book you?

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

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Bath resealing in Spennithorne, done in place

A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and resealing puts a stop to that. We work on basins & vanity units, baths and wet rooms, and people most often call us about silicone coming away from the tiles and damp near the bath.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

Is resealing worth it?

Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

When to call us in Spennithorne

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • An untidy old seal
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Gaps in the seal
  • Old sealant that looks dirty

Before booking anyone

  • How to look after the finish
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How soon you can use it again
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

Our hiring checklist

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Open a window after bathing

Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a couple of hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Clear the area around the damage

Getting a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Advice

What a repair can’t fix

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Hidden water damage
  • A flexing bath

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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.
