Upper Weald questions

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.

Do you work in Upper Weald?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Upper Weald for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Movement is the usual cause. We fill the bath before sealing it.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Upper Weald?

We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your MK19 postcode.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

When to call us in Upper Weald

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning can’t get it all out.

Customers generally contact us about:

  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Gaps in the seal
  • Black mould in the sealant

How to compare quotes

Looking after it afterwards

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal

Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

What we do, step by step

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take about two hours for a bath, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. We ensure the joint is completely dry.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Advice

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Resealing in Upper Weald: why it matters

Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Upper Weald. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

What we work on

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

For landlords and businesses

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
