For landlords and businesses
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Bath resealing in Wyverstone, done in place
A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Fresh joints make the whole room look cleaner, and they keep water out. We are frequently asked to fix gaps by the taps and silicone smeared on tiles, in baths, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes around two hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Make sure the area is dry

Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Ventilate the bathroom well
Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
FAQs for Wyverstone
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
Do you cover Wyverstone?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Wyverstone for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Damp is the cause. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
Can tenants book a repair?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
