What we do, step by step

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we are there, the work takes a couple of hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Why it’s worth resealing in Tilton on the Hill

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Tilton on the Hill. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Tilton on the Hill questions

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

What areas do you cover?

All of Leicestershire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Give the seal a regular clean

Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use.

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

What affects the price in Tilton on the Hill

Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

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

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Send photos for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What we can’t put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Movement in the bath or tray

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we repair

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

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Tilton on the Hill as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Signs you need bath resealing in Tilton on the Hill

Sealant doesn’t last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

People typically call us after spotting one of these:

  • Gaps in the seal
  • An untidy old seal
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Gaps by the taps

Before booking anyone

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What preparation is included
