Bath resealing near Castlebay

Bath resealing in Castlebay, done in place

A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they keep water out. Whether it’s black mould in the sealant and water getting behind the bath or tray, we can generally put it right, on kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units alike.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which generally takes a couple of hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

What bath resealing costs

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

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material and finish
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send pictures for a quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • What it’s made of, if you know

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Why it’s worth resealing in Castlebay

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book.

What you get with us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • No need to remove anything
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

See our prices page.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Common problems we fix in Castlebay

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould takes hold.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • A messy previous reseal

What to look for in a quote

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How the colour is matched
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show

Our hiring checklist

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
