Our bath resealing service in East Ayrshire
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, including the awkward bits behind the taps. Our repair technicians work on baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people get in touch are sealant that’s split or lifting and missing sealant behind the taps.
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes about two hours for a bath. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Repairs by material
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
What affects the price in East Ayrshire
There is no area surcharge for East Ayrshire. The price reflects:
- The colour and finish to match
- The material
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many items we do on one visit
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any details about the material
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
What we’re called out for in East Ayrshire
Joints split if the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Stained silicone
- Black spots in the silicone
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Silicone smeared on tiles
Landlords, agents and businesses in East Ayrshire
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in East Ayrshire as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
East Ayrshire questions
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Normally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Movement is the usual cause. We fill the bath before sealing it.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
