About our bath resealing in Ashley

A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. Typical jobs include sealant that’s split or lifting and a messy previous reseal, in baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures.

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

Why it’s worth resealing in Ashley

Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How we price bath resealing

We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • The material
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The material, if you know it
  • Natural light rather than flash

If you are in Ashley and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

When to call us in Ashley

Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed while the bath was empty.

Common reasons people in Ashley contact us are:

  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Stained silicone
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting

Comparing quotes

  • When it can be used again
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • How to care for the finish
  • How your room will be protected

How to compare quotes

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

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

What a repair can’t fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Hidden water damage
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • A flexing bath

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Wet rooms
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Baths
  • Basins & vanity units

FAQs for Ashley

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Normally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Do you cover the whole of Shropshire?

All of Shropshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

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, to open the joint fully.

What we do, step by step

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a couple of hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

How to get a price

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Let steam out after showers

Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
