Questions from Upper Shuckburgh
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Damp is the cause. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
Do you work in Upper Shuckburgh?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Upper Shuckburgh. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
How long does resealing take?
Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Bath resealing in Upper Shuckburgh, done in place
A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. Whether it’s silicone smeared on tiles and unsealed corners, we can usually put it right.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Upper Shuckburgh and across Northamptonshire.

What else we do in Upper Shuckburgh
Why reseal now?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Air the room after use
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and do not stand bottles on the seal.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
What a repair cannot fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Hollow or loose tiles
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures

How the visit works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes about two hours for a bath. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Advice
Prices and what affects them
There’s no area surcharge for Upper Shuckburgh. The price reflects:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many areas need work
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from photos
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
