What a repair cannot fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Bath resealing in Woolley, done in place

A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. If you are dealing with discoloured, yellow sealant and damp near the bath, we can help, on basins & vanity units, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths alike.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Woolley and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Different materials, different repairs

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

Landlord and trade work in Woolley

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

If you manage property in Woolley, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

Prices and what affects them

We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material and finish
  • The type of damage

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Getting a price from pictures

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode

Upload photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your WF4 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Resealing in Woolley: why it matters

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

See our pricing.

Common problems we fix in Woolley

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Leaks at the edges
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Black mould in the sealant

Before you book anyone

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How your room will be protected
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

Choosing a repair company

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes about two hours for a bath. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.

  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. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
