Common questions in St Erney
What information do you need?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in St Erney.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Movement is the usual cause. We fill the bath before sealing it.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
What happens after I send pictures?
We come back with a fixed price. There is no obligation to book.
About our bath resealing in St Erney
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Our technicians work on shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and wet rooms, and people most frequently call us about water getting behind the bath or tray and gaps by the taps.
Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Landlord and trade work in St Erney
For anyone letting property in or around St Erney, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
How to look after the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Let steam out after showers
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Wipe the joints dry after use
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, typically around 24 hours.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.

How we price bath resealing
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
- The colour and finish to match
- The material and finish
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your photos
Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:
- Any details about the material
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
Why it’s worth resealing in St Erney
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Why book with us
