Bath resealing in Aish without replacing anything

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Common call-outs are for unsealed corners and black mould in the sealant, across basins & vanity units, kitchen worktops & sinks and wet rooms.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Your questions about bath resealing in Aish

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

We’ll give you the curing time.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Do you work in Aish?

We do. We send a technician to Aish for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

How we price bath resealing

You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • The material
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How easy the damage is to reach

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Any details about the material

Most customers in Aish get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Why reseal now?

Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

The process

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a couple of hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We make sure the joint is completely dry.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Signs you need bath resealing in Aish

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed with the bath empty.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • A messy previous reseal
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Stained silicone
  • Black mould in the sealant

Comparing quotes

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • What preparation is included
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

Choosing a repair company

Honest limits

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

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

Materials we work on in Aish

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

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in

Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
