Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Auchenhowie, East Dunbartonshire
Local bath resealing for Auchenhowie: a fixed quote from photos, a tidy visit and a one-year guarantee.
- Damp near the bath
- Gaps by the taps
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
How to look after the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Air the room after use
- Keep the joints dry
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
About our bath resealing in Auchenhowie
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. We work on shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & sinks, and people most frequently call us about old sealant that looks dirty and sealant that’s split or lifting.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Prices and what affects them
Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- What the surface is made of
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many areas need work
- How easy the damage is to reach
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
FAQs for Auchenhowie
What happens after I send photos?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
How long does silicone take to cure?
Normally about a day later. We will tell you the exact time.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
How long does resealing take?
Usually a couple of hours, plus curing time.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Typically because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.
When we would advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Hollow or loose tiles
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
What we do, step by step
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes about two hours for a bath, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
