Landlord and trade work in Wickwar
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take about two hours for a bath, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- 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
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know about parking or access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Getting a price
Send us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Wickwar, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Related advice
When a repair isn’t the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Baths
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks

Wickwar: your questions answered
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Do you cover Wickwar?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Wickwar and the rest of Gloucestershire. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Normally because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
What we’re called out for in Wickwar
Sealant does not last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Gaps by the taps
- Mould you cannot clean out
- A messy previous reseal
- Old sealant that looks dirty
What your quote should include
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Who will actually do the work
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
Why reseal now?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why Wickwar customers choose us
- Everything repaired in place

Repairs by material
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Let steam out after showers
- Use the extractor fan
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, usually around 24 hours.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
