When to call us in Achnacroish

No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

Clients generally contact us about:

  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles

Before you book anyone

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Who will actually do the work
  • When it can be used again
  • How the room is protected while they work

How to compare quotes

Bath resealing at your home in Achnacroish

We cut out all of the old sealant, deal with any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. Whether it’s leaks at the edges and old sealant that looks dirty, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

How we price bath resealing

We charge the same across the UK, including Achnacroish. The price reflects:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Access to the area
  • The material and finish
  • Doing more than one item at once

We do not 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.

Quotes from your photos

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

How to care for the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Store bottles on a shelf

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

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Is resealing worth it?

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. 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 play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Shower trays

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

When a repair isn’t the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • A flexing bath
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

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

Surfaces we repair

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

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow around two hours. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
