Wiggenhall St Germans questions
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
How long does a reseal take?
Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Normally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Normally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

Repairs by material
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
How to care for the repair
It’s all simple stuff:
- Air the room after use
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Give the seal a regular clean
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, usually around 24 hours.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
Common problems we fix in Wiggenhall St Germans
A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould grows faster.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Gaps by the taps
- Stained silicone
- A messy previous reseal
- Leaks at the edges
Questions to ask before you book
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether the price covers travel
When a repair is not the answer
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
Why reseal now?
Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
