About our bath resealing in Braehead and Broomridge

Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Fresh joints make the whole room look cleaner, and they keep water out. If you’re dealing with gaps in the seal and an untidy old seal, we can usually put it right, on kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units alike.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Braehead and Broomridge and across Stirling.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

What we’re called out for in Braehead and Broomridge

Poor ventilation speeds things up: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould grows faster.

People typically call us when they notice something like this:

  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Damp near the bath
  • Missing sealant behind the taps

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • What preparation is included
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

How to compare quotes

What bath resealing costs

A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What the surface is made of

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Braehead and Broomridge. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a couple of hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

How to get a price

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Braehead and Broomridge questions

How much does bath resealing cost in Braehead and Broomridge?

We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

How long does resealing take?

Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

Usually after around 24 hours. We’ll tell you the exact time.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Braehead and Broomridge

If you manage property in Braehead and Broomridge, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What we can’t put right

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
