Bath resealing in Balgowan, 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. We work on shower trays & enclosures, baths and basins & vanity units, and people most often call us about silicone smeared on tiles and black spots in the silicone.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

What we do, step by step
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. You can expect it to take around two hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Do you need bath resealing in Balgowan?
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning cannot get it all out.
People normally call us after spotting something like this:
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Black mould in the sealant
- An untidy old seal
- Sealant that is split or lifting

For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff:
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Open a window after bathing
Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Will the price change on the day?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
How long will it take?
A bath or shower normally takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.
How we price bath resealing
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- What the surface is made of
