Trusted bath resealing in Ashby Magna

Bath resealing in Ashby Magna without replacing anything

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. We work on basins & vanity units, baths and shower trays & enclosures, and the jobs we see most are gaps in the seal and an untidy old seal.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

Why it’s worth resealing in Ashby Magna

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why us?

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best:

  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Let steam out after showers

Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Do you need bath resealing in Ashby Magna?

Sealant doesn’t last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Gaps by the taps
  • Sealant that is split or lifting
  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray

Questions to ask before you book

  • Who turns up on the day
  • What prep work is covered
  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether they match the colour on site

What we do, step by step

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take around two hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  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, including around the taps.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

When a repair isn’t the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

How we price bath resealing

A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • The material and finish
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether we combine several jobs

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Common questions in Ashby Magna

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Letting agents often 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.
