Landlord and trade work in Ardlui
Letting agents often send us pictures 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.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
How we handle bath resealing in Ardlui
All of the old sealant is cut out, treat any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. We regularly repair kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and basins & vanity units, and people most frequently call us about black spots in the silicone and discoloured, yellow sealant.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

What we do, step by step
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes about two hours for a bath. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Preparing for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Common problems we fix in Ardlui
No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Damp near the bath
- Gaps by the taps
- Old sealant that looks dirty
What to look for in a quote
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether the price covers travel
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
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.
FAQs for Ardlui
When can I use the bath after resealing?
Usually after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
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.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Normally because the bath or tray moves. We seal baths full of water.
How much does bath resealing cost in Ardlui?
Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
What happens after I send pictures?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath or shower and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Different materials, different repairs
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
What bath resealing costs
You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- Access to the area
- The material and finish
- The colour and finish to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A photo taken from further back
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Why reseal now?
Resealing costs very little. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
