Bath resealing near Cluny

What bath resealing costs

You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The material, if you know it
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower, we can give you a fixed quote.

Bath resealing in Cluny, done in place

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. We work on baths, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks, and common reasons people contact us are leaks at the edges and silicone coming away from the tiles.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Fife.

Cluny: your questions answered

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

What happens next?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

Is my repair covered?

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

Can new silicone go over old?

No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

Normally after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.

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

When a repair is not the answer

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • A flexing bath

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we repair

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

How to care for the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Dry the seal after bathing

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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 typically the cheaper route.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

What we do, step by step

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a couple of hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Open a window if you can

How to get a price

Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Cluny, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Related advice

Do you need bath resealing in Cluny?

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • A messy previous reseal
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Mould you can’t clean out
