Whippingham: your questions answered
How long does a reseal take?
Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.

We will give you the curing time.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
How quickly can you book me in?

What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed price, normally with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Bath resealing at your home in Whippingham
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. We’re often asked to fix water getting behind the bath or tray and missing sealant behind the taps, in basins & vanity units, baths and shower trays & enclosures.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Wipe the joints dry after use
Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Prices and what affects them
We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many items we do on one visit
- The type of damage
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
For anyone letting property in or around Whippingham, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

What we cannot put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
How the visit works
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a couple of hours.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We make sure the joint is completely dry.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
