About our bath resealing in Burnside
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. We’re frequently asked to fix stained silicone and a messy previous reseal, across basins & vanity units, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Burnside as everywhere else we work.

Burnside questions
Do you cover the entire of South Lanarkshire?
Across the UK, and that includes Burnside. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you cover Burnside?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Burnside for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
What affects the price in Burnside
You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What kind of damage it is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Doing more than one item at once
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
Phone photos are fine. Ensure they show:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
If you’re in Burnside and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

What else we do in Burnside
For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Burnside, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Keep the joints dry
- Use the extractor fan
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
When we would advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Hollow or loose tiles
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
