When a repair is not the answer
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Hidden water damage
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Baths
- Wet rooms

How we handle bath resealing in Ballachulish
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Typical jobs include black spots in the silicone and stained silicone, across baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Air the room after use
Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Do you need bath resealing in Ballachulish?
No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
The things customers typically mention when they call include:
- Mould you cannot clean out
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- An untidy old seal
- Damp near the bath
What your quote should include
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Whether the price covers travel
- How long it needs to cure
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. 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 photos.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
Resealing in Ballachulish: why it matters
Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
FAQs for Ballachulish
How long does silicone take to cure?
Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.
What happens next?
You will get a fixed quote back, generally with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you price it without visiting?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Typically because the bath or tray moves. We fill the bath before sealing it.

How it works
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes about two hours for a bath, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We make sure the joint is completely dry.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
