Our bath resealing service in Dumfries and Galloway

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Our technicians work on wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people get in touch are gaps in the seal and gaps by the taps.

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes around two hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
We clean the joint and treat any mould.
The joint is dried thoroughly.
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, including around the taps.

Near you in Dumfries

Typical jobs here are in homes near Myles Bar, Dumfries Academy and Dumfries. There is a railway station in Dumfries itself: Dumfries station. Well-known places in the area include Gracefield Arts Centre (under half a mile north) and Dumfries Castle (1 mile south). Not far away are Lochaber Loch.

How to look after the repair

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

Replace the seal when mould sets in
Give the seal a regular clean
Do not stand toiletries on the seal
Run the extractor fan during and after showers

Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Dumfries and Galloway, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

How the damage happens

Sealant doesn’t last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed:

Discoloured, yellow sealant
Unsealed corners
Black spots in the silicone
Leaks at the edges

What bath resealing costs

We price every job individually. The main factors are:

Where the damage is and how we get to it
Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Doing more than one item at once

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 make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send pictures for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
Any earlier repairs or coatings
Any details about the material

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Common questions in Dumfries and Galloway

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Typically poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Do you cover Dumfries and Galloway?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Dumfries and Galloway. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
