Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Four Ashes, Buckinghamshire
We travel to Four Ashes for bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone. Everything is done in place, and the work is guaranteed.
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Black spots in the silicone
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
How we handle bath resealing in Four Ashes
A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. Common call-outs are for gaps by the taps and silicone coming away from the tiles, on baths, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Four Ashes and across Buckinghamshire.

What affects the price in Four Ashes
There’s no charge for travel to Four Ashes. The price comes down to:
- The colour and finish to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material and finish
- How much damage there is
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Use the extractor fan
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Air the room after use
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
What a repair cannot fix
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Movement in the bath or tray
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

- An untidy old seal
- Leaks at the edges

For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a couple of hours, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- We clean the joint and treat any 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, including around the taps.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Have a window or extractor fan available
How to get a price
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

FAQs for Four Ashes
What happens after I send photos?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
Normally about a day later. We will tell you the exact time.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Typically because the bath or tray moves. We seal baths full of water.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
Are there extra charges for Four Ashes?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Why it’s worth resealing in Four Ashes
Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
