Bath resealing in Ardbeg, done in place
We reseal baths, shower trays, basins and worktops, with mould-resistant sanitary silicone. A typical reseal takes a couple of hours, then it needs to cure. Typical jobs include old sealant that looks dirty and black mould in the sealant, on wet rooms, basins & vanity units and baths.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back.

Common questions in Ardbeg
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can new silicone go over old?
We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.
Do you work in Ardbeg?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Ardbeg from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Ardbeg?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Air the room after use
Avoid scraping the joints, and do not stand bottles on the seal.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Different materials, different repairs
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Argyll and Bute and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Signs you need bath resealing in Ardbeg
Joints split if the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed while the bath was empty.
Clients normally contact us about:
- Gaps in the seal
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Black mould in the sealant
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Whether the price covers travel
- How changes to the job are handled
- How the room is protected while they work
Why reseal now?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Advice
What bath resealing costs
We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What kind of damage it is
- Access to the area
- What the surface is made of
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Ardbeg. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
