How we price bath resealing
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- How many areas need work
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
Email us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Aird, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
Different materials, different repairs
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
When to call us in Aird
Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed with the bath empty.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Unsealed corners
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Black spots in the silicone

Your questions about bath resealing in Aird
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
How long does resealing take?
A bath or shower typically takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
How long before I can shower?
You will get the curing time from us.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Do you cover the whole of Dumfries and Galloway?
The entire UK, including all of Dumfries and Galloway. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes around two hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We ensure the joint is completely dry.
- 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, taps included.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Open a window if you can
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

What a repair can’t fix

- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first

How to care for the repair
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Air the room after use
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Dry the seal after bathing
Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
