Stony Houghton questions

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can landlords book you?

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

Can new silicone go over old?

Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Stony Houghton included. Travel is included in the price.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

How do I book?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

About our bath resealing in Stony Houghton

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. If you’re dealing with black spots in the silicone and stained silicone, we can help, whatever the material.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow around two hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

What bath resealing costs

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

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What the surface is made of
  • The type of damage
  • The colour and finish to match

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A picture taken from further back

Upload photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Stony Houghton, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

What a repair can’t fix

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

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

What we work on

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

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Sinks and worktops

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

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

When to call us in Stony Houghton

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

Get in touch if you’ve noticed:

  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Damp near the bath

How to care for the repair

To keep it looking its best:

  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Let steam out after showers

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, usually around 24 hours.

Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Is resealing worth it?

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book.

Landlord and trade work in Stony Houghton

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
