Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Ashurst, West Sussex
Bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone for homes and businesses in Ashurst and across West Sussex. Free, fixed quotes from your photos.
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Unsealed corners
How it works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes around two hours for most jobs. The room is left tidy.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
How to get a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Advice
Bath resealing at your home in Ashurst
Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and a new seal stops it. We regularly repair baths, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms, and common reasons people contact us are missing sealant behind the taps and gaps in the seal.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Ashurst
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. 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.
Is resealing worth it?
A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Ashurst. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

FAQs for Ashurst
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
You will get the curing time from us.
What does bath resealing cost?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
What bath resealing costs
