Trusted bath resealing in Carntyne

Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

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

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Bath resealing at your home in Carntyne

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. If you’re dealing with an untidy old seal and silicone coming away from the tiles, we can help, on wet rooms, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & sinks alike.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Carntyne and across Glasgow.

What we do, step by step

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes around two hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We make sure the joint is completely dry.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Open a window if you can
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Ask for a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Air the room after use
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

Carntyne questions

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

What information do you need?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

What happens if you find more damage?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. You are under no obligation.

How long does a reseal take?

A bath or shower normally takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Honest limits

A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

How we price bath resealing

A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • One picture of the whole bath or shower
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • The material, if you know it
  • Natural light rather than flash

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
