What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes around two hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together. For a rural address like Wood's Corner, we plan the journey in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the bath resealing comes with us in one trip.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Keep a parking space clear if you can

How long will it take?

Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

We’ll give you the curing time.

Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

Can you price it without visiting?

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, then guarantee it for a year.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Use the extractor fan

Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

What affects the price in Wood's Corner

Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • Access to the area
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

When a repair is not the answer

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

  • Baths
  • Wet rooms
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Basins & vanity units
