When a repair isn’t the answer

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

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

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

Resealing in Trematon: why it matters

Resealing costs very little. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why Trematon clients choose us

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Read our prices page.

What happens on the day

We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a couple of hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Getting a price

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

How to look after the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Questions from Trematon

When can I use the bath after resealing?

We’ll give you the curing time.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

What happens after I send photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

How long does a reseal take?

Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

When to call us in Trematon

Sealant doesn’t last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • An untidy old seal
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles

Prices and what affects them

Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Landlord and trade work in Trematon

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

For anyone letting property in or around Trematon, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.
