Landlord and trade work in Starbeck

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Starbeck use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Questions from Starbeck

How long does a reseal take?

Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across North Yorkshire.

Can new silicone go over old?

All the old sealant comes out. New silicone will not bond to old.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Damp is the cause. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

The process

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a couple of hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

What we cannot put right

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Hidden water damage
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

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

Materials we repair

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

How we price bath resealing

We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How much damage there is
  • The type of damage
  • The material

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

For a price in Starbeck, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Why reseal now?

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why book with us

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in

Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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.
