Prices and what affects them
We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- The colour and finish to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Doing more than one item at once
- The size and number of damaged areas
Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed quote
You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

Your questions about bath resealing in Cathcart
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Something is moving. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Cathcart?
We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your G44 postcode.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Glasgow.
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
What we do, step by step
We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the work takes a couple of hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

How to look after the repair
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Let steam out after showers
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
