Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Bath resealing in Stoke Ash without replacing anything

We cut out all of the old sealant, treat any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. Our repair technicians work on kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and basins & vanity units, and the jobs we see most are unsealed corners and mould you can’t clean out.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Stoke Ash and across Suffolk.

Prices and what affects them

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The type of damage

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

How the visit works

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a couple of hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We make sure the joint is completely dry.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Getting a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Work for landlords and builders

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Why reseal now?

Resealing costs very little and protects the walls and floor. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

What we are called out for in Stoke Ash

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: damp hangs around, and mould grows faster.

Look out for these signs:

  • Gaps by the taps
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Gaps in the seal
  • Silicone smeared on tiles

What to look for in a quote

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How your room will be protected

How to compare quotes

Questions from Stoke Ash

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Do you cover Stoke Ash?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Stoke Ash. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
