Bath resealing for Ballingry, without a refit. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, then we come to you.

The process
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take about two hours for a bath. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
Related advice
Bath resealing in Ballingry without replacing anything
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. Whether it’s silicone coming away from the tiles and missing sealant behind the taps, we can help, whatever the material.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Ballingry questions
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Do you cover Ballingry?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Ballingry. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Usually poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
How long does resealing take?
Normally a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Fife.

What we cannot put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

How to look after the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Let steam out after showers
- Keep the joints dry
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
What bath resealing costs
You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- How many items we do on one visit
- What the surface is made of
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A picture taken from further back
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
