Ashby questions
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Ashby included. Travel is included in the price.
Do you cover Ashby?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Ashby for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Normally because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.
About our bath resealing in Ashby
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Whether it’s gaps by the taps and leaks at the edges, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How it works
We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes about two hours for a bath. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Signs you need bath resealing in Ashby
Even good sealant eventually discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Unsealed corners
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Stained silicone
- Silicone smeared on tiles

What affects the price in Ashby
A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
How to get a fixed quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Honest limits
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Hidden water damage
- A flexing bath
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Ashby
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
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.

Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Dry the seal after bathing
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Different materials, different repairs
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
