Bath resealing in Anstruther without replacing anything

We cut out all of the old sealant, treat 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. We’re frequently asked to fix black spots in the silicone and discoloured, yellow sealant, in basins & vanity units, wet rooms and baths.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

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.

Why it’s worth resealing in Anstruther

Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why book with us

  • We leave the room as we found it

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Let steam out after showers

Use 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.

Repairs by material

Baths

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

Sinks and worktops

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

When a repair is not the answer

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

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

Materials we repair

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

Anstruther: your questions answered

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Something is moving. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do you charge for travel?

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

What do you need from me?

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

How long does silicone take to cure?

You’ll get the curing time from us, normally around a day.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Anstruther

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes about two hours for a bath, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

What bath resealing costs

There is no charge for travel to Anstruther. The price depends on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Access to the area
  • What the surface is made of

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:

  • Any details about the material
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
