Is resealing worth it?
Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. 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.

FAQs for Tupton
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK. Prices don’t change with location.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Will the price change on the day?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t 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.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Advice
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Wipe the joints dry after use
Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
