Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Ashford, Kent
Bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone at your home in Ashford, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Leaks at the edges
How to care for the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Air the room after use
- Store bottles on a shelf
Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
Bath resealing in Ashford without replacing anything
Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Fresh joints make the whole room look cleaner, and they protect the walls and floor. We regularly repair basins & vanity units, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths, and people most frequently call us about damp near the bath and sealant that’s split or lifting.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

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

Repairs by material
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, once the joint is completely dry.
