DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Why it’s worth resealing in Ashton-on-Ribble
Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

What your bath or shower is made of matters
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Baths
Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Let steam out after showers
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, 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, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

Your questions about bath resealing in Ashton-on-Ribble
Why does mould come back so fast?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Usually because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
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.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the entire UK, including Ashton-on-Ribble and the rest of Lancashire. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
