Bath resealing in Ayr, done in place
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. Common call-outs are for a messy previous reseal and water getting behind the bath or tray, across baths, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Prices and what affects them
A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your KA7 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Ayr
For anyone letting property in or around Ayr, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.
Is resealing worth it?
Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

How it works
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It generally takes a couple of hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Open a window if you can
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Advice
When we’d advise against a repair
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Common questions in Ayr
How long does resealing take?
Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Damp is the cause. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
How long before I can shower?
You will get the curing time from us.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Common problems we fix in Ayr
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Mould you cannot clean out
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Sealant that is split or lifting
What to look for in a quote
- When it can be used again
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How the room is protected while they work
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
How to care for the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Open a window after bathing
Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
