Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Ash, Shropshire
Our repair technicians come to Ash for bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.
- Unsealed corners
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- An untidy old seal
Is resealing worth it?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

About our bath resealing in Ash
Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. Our repair technicians work on basins & vanity units, kitchen worktops & sinks and wet rooms, and common reasons people get in touch are gaps in the seal and leaks at the edges.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Let steam out after showers
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, generally around 24 hours.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
Honest limits
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- A flexing bath
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Baths
How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes about two hours for a bath. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

How we price bath resealing
We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
- How many items we do on one visit
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed price
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
