About our bath resealing in Pear Ash
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. If you are dealing with old sealant that looks dirty and black mould in the sealant, we can help, on shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & sinks alike.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

What affects the price in Pear Ash
Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
- Access to the area
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- 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.
Resealing in Pear Ash: why it matters
Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Pear Ash. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
What you get with us
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- One visit for most repairs
- A year’s guarantee on all work

What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes around two hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Getting a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

- Stained silicone
- An untidy old seal
- Gaps in the seal
What your quote should include
- When it can be used again

How to look after the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Let steam out after showers
Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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 normally the cheaper route.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Pear Ash: your questions answered
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
How long before I can shower?
We’ll give you the curing time, typically around a day.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
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.
How long does a reseal take?
A bath or shower normally takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.
For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Somerset and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
When a repair is not the answer
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- A flexing bath
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
- Wet rooms
