Prices and what affects them
You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How much damage there is
- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Tapton. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Something in shot to show the size
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
What we do, step by step
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a couple of hours.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We make sure the joint is completely dry.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Getting a price

Related advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Air the room after use
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Keep bottles off the joints
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally around 24 hours.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
When to call us in Tapton
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Gaps by the taps
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Black spots in the silicone
