Is resealing worth it?

Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why us?

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

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.

Shower trays

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

Prices and what affects them

You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • The material and finish
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Access to the area
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Getting a price from photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Any details about the material
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower

Most customers in Tolvaddon Downs get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

When we’d advise against a repair

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • Hidden water damage
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

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

Surfaces we repair

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

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a couple of hours. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Make sure the area is dry

Related advice

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

How to look after the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Open a window after bathing

Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.

Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Questions from Tolvaddon Downs

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Do you cover Tolvaddon Downs?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Tolvaddon Downs from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
