Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Bath resealing in Wootton, done in place

Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. Whether it’s black spots in the silicone and old sealant that looks dirty, we can generally put it right, on wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures alike.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes about two hours for a bath for most jobs. The room is left tidy.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We ensure the joint is completely dry.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

Resealing in Wootton: why it matters

Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What you get with us

  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Questions from Wootton

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

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.

What does bath resealing cost?

Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

How long does resealing take?

A bath or shower typically takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Something is moving. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.

Common problems we fix in Wootton

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning cannot get it all out.

The things clients generally mention when they call include:

  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray

Before booking anyone

  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Aftercare advice

How to compare quotes

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

How we price bath resealing

Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Quotes from your pictures

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
