Bath Resealing for Ardrishaig homes
Bath resealing across Ardrishaig and nearby, done in a single visit in most cases.
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Mould you cannot clean out
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
Can I fix it myself?
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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Bath resealing at your home in Ardrishaig
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. Typical jobs include damp near the bath and black spots in the silicone, in wet rooms, baths and shower trays & enclosures.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

What happens on the day
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take about two hours for a bath, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
How to prepare
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Ensure the room can be ventilated

Advice
For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
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.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we’re called out for in Ardrishaig
Sealant doesn’t last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
Customers usually contact us about:
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Black mould in the sealant
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Sealant that is split or lifting
What your quote should include
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What preparation is included
- What aftercare is recommended
What bath resealing costs
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Access to the area
- What the surface is made of
- How hard the colour is to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- Natural light rather than flash
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your PA30 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Common questions in Ardrishaig
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
How long does resealing take?
A bath or shower generally takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
What does bath resealing cost?
Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
