FAQs for Walter's Ash

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

How do I book?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Movement is the usual cause. We seal baths full of water.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

Normally after around 24 hours. We’ll tell you the exact time.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers

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

Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Common problems we fix in Walter's Ash

Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed while the bath was empty.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • An untidy old seal
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles

What to look for in a quote

  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

Our hiring checklist

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a couple of hours. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Open a window if you can
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
