About our bath resealing in Avoch
Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Fresh joints make the entire room look cleaner, and they protect the walls and floor. Whether it’s gaps in the seal and water getting behind the bath or tray, we can help, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

Landlord and trade work in Avoch
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
For anyone letting property in or around Avoch, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
When a repair is not the answer
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Basins & vanity units
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Avoch: your questions answered
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
What happens after I send photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Can new silicone go over old?
All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone doesn’t 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.
What information do you need?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Resealing in Avoch: why it matters
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is, and it protects everything around the bath. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

The process
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 around two hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Ask for a price
To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Advice
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Keep bottles off the joints
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and do not stand bottles on the seal.
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.
Common problems we fix in Avoch
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.
People usually call us when they notice something like this:
- Unsealed corners
- Stained silicone
- Black spots in the silicone
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
