How we handle bath resealing in Carluddon
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and resealing puts a stop to that. Common call-outs are for an untidy old seal and old sealant that looks dirty, in basins & vanity units, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Carluddon and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Different materials, different repairs
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
What we cannot put right
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- A flexing bath
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we work on in Carluddon

For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
How to care for the repair
To keep it looking its best:
- Open a window after bathing
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Keep the joints dry
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
What bath resealing costs
We don’t charge extra for travel to Carluddon. The price comes down to:
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
- Doing more than one item at once
- Unusual colours or finishes
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Carluddon. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
- Where you are, by postcode
- What it’s made of, if you know
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
How the visit works
We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes around two hours in most cases. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
