Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Do you need bath resealing in Stapleton?

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed with the bath empty.

Clients typically contact us about:

  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Sealant that is split or lifting
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray

What your quote should include

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How the room is protected while they work

How to compare quotes

What we do, step by step

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a couple of hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Resealing in Stapleton: why it matters

Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Why us?

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Read our full price list.

Work for landlords and builders

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Keep the joints dry

Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

When a repair isn’t the answer

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • Hidden water damage
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Hollow or loose tiles

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

Materials we repair

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
