About our bath resealing in Bràigh na h-Aoidhe

Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. Typical jobs include damp near the bath and a messy previous reseal, across basins & vanity units, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Signs you need bath resealing in Bràigh na h-Aoidhe

No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:

  • Damp near the bath
  • Stained silicone
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Missing sealant behind the taps

Questions from Bràigh na h-Aoidhe

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

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

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

Will it make a mess?

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

How long will it take?

Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Na h-Eileanan Siar and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

For anyone letting property in or around Bràigh na h-Aoidhe, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.

Why reseal now?

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

How to care for the repair

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Air the room after use

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
