What your bath or shower is made of matters

Shower trays

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

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to around two hours, including clearing up.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Use the extractor fan

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.

Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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, and the work is guaranteed.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

  • Water getting behind the bath or tray

What your quote should include

  • How your room will be protected
  • What preparation is included
  • How long it needs to cure

How to compare quotes

What bath resealing costs

You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Access to the area
  • The material and finish
  • How many areas need work

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from pictures

You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

FAQs for Ashculme

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Movement is the usual cause. We seal baths full of water.

How do I book?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Ashculme

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • A flexing bath
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
