Bath resealing for Bunessan homes

Bath resealing at your home in Bunessan

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. Our technicians work on shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and wet rooms, and people most frequently call us about silicone smeared on tiles and unsealed corners.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Bunessan: your questions answered

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Generally because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What happens after I send pictures?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

How long does silicone take to cure?

Typically after around 24 hours. We will tell you the exact time.

How long does resealing take?

Usually a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Do you come to Bunessan?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Bunessan from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

The process

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a couple of hours, and you are 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. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

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.

  • Black spots in the silicone

Questions to ask before booking

  • How long it needs to cure

10 questions to ask before booking

When a repair is not the answer

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Hidden water damage
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Hollow or loose tiles

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Bunessan

  • Wet rooms
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Baths
  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why book with us

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

Read our pricing.

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

If you manage property in Bunessan, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

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. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
