Questions from Ashbourne
How long before I can shower?
You’ll get the curing time from us, normally around a day.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

When to call us in Ashbourne
A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: damp hangs around, and mould grows faster.

- An untidy old seal

- Water getting behind the bath or tray

Why reseal now?
Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

What your bath or shower is made of matters
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.
What we can’t put right
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- A flexing bath
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Baths
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It normally takes a couple of hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Advice
How to care for the repair
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Let steam out after showers
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Prices and what affects them
We don’t charge extra for travel to Ashbourne. The price depends on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The type of damage
- What the surface is made of
- The size and number of damaged areas
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Most customers in Ashbourne get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
