Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Walwen use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Bath resealing at your home in Walwen
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. If you are dealing with leaks at the edges and stained silicone, we can generally put it right.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

How to look after the repair
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Use the extractor fan
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
What we can’t put right
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Basins & vanity units
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
FAQs for Walwen
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Flintshire.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
Do you cover Walwen?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Walwen and the rest of Flintshire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
Usually after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Is resealing worth it?
A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Prices and what affects them
Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- The material and finish
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What kind of damage it is
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

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