What affects the price in Tile Hill

We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material and finish
  • How much damage there is

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Bath resealing in Tile Hill, done in place

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Common call-outs are for water getting behind the bath or tray and sealant that’s split or lifting, across kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and wet rooms.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

Different materials, different repairs

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Shower trays

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

Tile Hill: your questions answered

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

How long does resealing take?

A bath or shower usually takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Tile Hill included. Travel is included in the price.

Can you quote from photos?

Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Tile Hill

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow about two hours for a bath from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain 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. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  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

  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Honest limits

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • A flexing bath

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

What we work on

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

What we are called out for in Tile Hill

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed with the bath empty.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Stained silicone
  • An untidy old seal
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Missing sealant behind the taps

What to look for in a quote

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

Our hiring checklist

Is resealing worth it?

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
