Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Let steam out after showers

Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Do you need bath resealing in Stillington?

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning cannot get it all out.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Gaps in the seal
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Gaps by the taps

Questions to ask before you book

  • How long it needs to cure
  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether the price covers travel

How to compare quotes

Questions from Stillington

What happens after I send photos?

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

Are there extra charges for Stillington?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

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

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Does someone need to be in?

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

How soon can you come?

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

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It typically takes a couple of hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

How to prepare

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Prices and what affects them

We charge the same across the UK, including Stillington. What changes the price is:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area
  • How hard the colour is to match

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Details of any past repairs

Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Stillington, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Work for landlords and builders

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.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
