When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

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

Materials we work on in Stocksbridge

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

Bath resealing in Stocksbridge, done in place

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Whether it’s silicone coming away from the tiles and silicone smeared on tiles, we can usually put it right.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Stocksbridge and across Barnsley.

FAQs for Stocksbridge

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

What happens next?

You will get a fixed quote back. There is no obligation to book.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Repairs by material

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

Sinks and worktops

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

The process

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes about two hours for a bath. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We make sure the joint is completely dry.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

How to get a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Related advice

Is resealing worth it?

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Stocksbridge. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why book with us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • No need to remove anything

Read our prices page.

Prices and what affects them

We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How many areas need work

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Quotes from your photos

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.

Signs you need bath resealing in Stocksbridge

No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Damp near the bath
  • Gaps in the seal
  • Unsealed corners
  • Black mould in the sealant

Before booking anyone

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
