Bath resealing near Ashby St Mary

Bath resealing in Ashby St Mary without replacing anything

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Our repair technicians work on kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and basins & vanity units, and the jobs we see most are leaks at the edges and silicone smeared on tiles.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Why reseal now?

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

What you get with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • We leave the room as we found it

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we are there, the work takes a couple of hours in most cases. The room is left tidy.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Open a window if you can

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

What we work on

FAQs for Ashby St Mary

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Ashby St Mary included. Travel is included in the price.

Do you cover Ashby St Mary?

We do. Technicians travel to Ashby St Mary from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Ashby St Mary

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What bath resealing costs

Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Access to the area
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

If you are in Ashby St Mary and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Repairs by material

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Open a window after bathing

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

What we’re called out for in Ashby St Mary

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.

Customers normally contact us about:

  • Unsealed corners
  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Damp near the bath

What your quote should include

  • Aftercare advice
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
