Winton questions
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
How we handle bath resealing in Winton
Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. We work on kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people contact us are black mould in the sealant and gaps in the seal.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Is resealing worth it?
A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Prices and what affects them
We do not charge extra for travel to Winton. The price depends on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
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 play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Where you are, by postcode
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
How to care for the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep the joints dry
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Let steam out after showers
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Signs you need bath resealing in Winton
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning can’t get it all out.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Gaps in the seal
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Black mould in the sealant
What your quote should include
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show

What else we do in Winton
Can I fix it myself?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
What happens on the day
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take about two hours for a bath, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
