Honest limits

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

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

Materials we repair

Bath resealing at your home in Ashover

A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Fresh joints make the entire room look cleaner, and they keep water out. Typical jobs include an untidy old seal and old sealant that looks dirty, on wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Ashover as everywhere else we work.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Ashover, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ashover use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Is resealing worth it?

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Ashover. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why book with us

  • One price list for the whole UK
  • One visit for most repairs
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Materials and what they mean for the repair

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

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. Allow about two hours for a bath.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Getting a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

How to care for the repair

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Air the room after use
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Store bottles on a shelf

Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

What affects the price in Ashover

A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material and finish
  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send photos for a quote

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

FAQs for Ashover

Why does mould come back so fast?

Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

How long does a reseal take?

Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

You’ll get the curing time from us.

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

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Do you work in Ashover?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Ashover for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
