How we handle bath resealing in Braehead
A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. Typical jobs include gaps by the taps and silicone coming away from the tiles, on baths, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Braehead questions
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can new silicone go over old?
All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Damp is the cause. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
What does bath resealing cost?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do you come to Braehead?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Braehead for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
What else we do in Braehead
Landlords, agents and businesses in Braehead
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
For anyone letting property in or around Braehead, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.
How the visit works
Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take about two hours for a bath, and we leave the room as we found it.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
What bath resealing costs
You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- The colour and finish to match
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many items we do on one visit
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
How to get a fixed price
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Where you are, by postcode
- A picture taken from further back
- Details of any past repairs
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.

Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
A DIY attempt isn’t 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.
When to call us in Braehead
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.

- Unsealed corners
- Leaks at the edges
- Stained silicone
- An untidy old seal
