When we would advise against a repair
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Hidden water damage
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Common problems we fix in Tarleton
A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould grows faster.

Tarleton questions
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
How long does silicone take to cure?
Normally after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Do you come to Tarleton?
We do. We send a technician to Tarleton for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.
Are there extra charges for Tarleton?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is resealing worth it?
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is and protects the walls and floor. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
