How we handle bath resealing in Auchtertool
Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. We regularly repair wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and baths, and common reasons people get in touch are an untidy old seal and sealant that’s split or lifting.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee.

How the visit works
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow around two hours.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Related advice
Do you need bath resealing in Auchtertool?
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning cannot get it all out.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- An untidy old seal
- Unsealed corners
- Leaks at the edges
- Stained silicone

When we would advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Hidden water damage
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first

How we price bath resealing
We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from photos
You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Email us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your KY2 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Wipe the joints dry after use
Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly 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.

FAQs for Auchtertool
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Auchtertool?
Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Can new silicone go over old?
We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
