DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Advice
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Air the room after use
- Store bottles on a shelf
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
When to call us in Victoria Park
Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed while the bath was empty.
Clients usually contact us about:
- Leaks at the edges
- Black mould in the sealant
- An untidy old seal
- Stained silicone
What to look for in a quote
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How your room will be protected
Repairs by material
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
What affects the price in Victoria Park
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- What kind of damage it is
- Doing more than one item at once
- How much damage there is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Any details about the material
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Common questions in Victoria Park
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
How long before I can shower?
You’ll get the curing time from us, generally around a day.
Do you cover Victoria Park?
We do. We send a technician to Victoria Park for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
