When to call us in Six Ashes

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed while the bath was empty.

How we handle bath resealing in Six Ashes

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. We regularly repair wet rooms, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & sinks, and people most frequently call us about a messy previous reseal and sealant that’s split or lifting.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Shropshire.

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Different materials, different repairs

Shower trays

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

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

Why reseal now?

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. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Advice

How we price bath resealing

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How easy the damage is to reach

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

You don’t need a survey visit. 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 quote.

How to care for the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Keep the joints dry
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Air the room after use
  • Give the seal a regular clean

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

What a repair can’t fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • A flexing bath
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Hollow or loose tiles

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

What we work on

  • Basins & vanity units
  • Baths
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Wet rooms
  • Shower trays & enclosures

Your questions about bath resealing in Six Ashes

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Six Ashes?

We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your WV15 postcode.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

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

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
