Trusted bath resealing in Askomill

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a couple of hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Landlords, agents and businesses in Askomill

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Argyll and Bute and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Your questions about bath resealing in Askomill

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

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

Do you hold any accreditations?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Do you work in Askomill?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Askomill. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Will the price change on the day?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide, so Askomill is covered. Prices don’t change with location.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

What happens next?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Different materials, different repairs

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

How to care for the repair

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Dry the seal after bathing

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

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

When to call us in Askomill

In time, even good sealant discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.

Clients generally contact us about:

  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray

Choosing a repair company

What bath resealing costs

There’s no charge for travel to Askomill. The price depends on:

  • How many areas need work
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material
  • Doing more than one item at once

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed price

You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A picture taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.
