When to call us in Addiebrownhill

No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Sealant that is split or lifting
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray

Choosing a repair company

How we handle bath resealing in Addiebrownhill

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and a new seal stops it. Whether it’s black spots in the silicone and a messy previous reseal, we can help, whatever the material.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Addiebrownhill as everywhere else we work.

Repairs by material

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Shower trays

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

What bath resealing costs

We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material and finish
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed price

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any details about the material
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower, we can price the job.

Common questions in Addiebrownhill

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can new silicone go over old?

We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone will not bond to old.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do you cover the entire of West Lothian?

Across the UK, and that includes Addiebrownhill. Prices do not change with location.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Honest limits

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we work on in Addiebrownhill

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

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow about two hours for a bath from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Clear the area around the damage

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

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.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Addiebrownhill as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Is resealing worth it?

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. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

What you get with us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Let steam out after showers

Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
