FAQs for Spital

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Spital?

Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your CH63 postcode.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

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

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

Can you quote from pictures?

Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

How the visit works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes about two hours for a bath. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

How to get a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

Honest limits

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Hidden water damage
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Landlord and trade work in Spital

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

What we are called out for in Spital

No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

Look out for these signs:

  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Gaps in the seal
  • Damp near the bath
  • Old sealant that looks dirty

Questions to ask before booking

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Aftercare advice
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
