Bath resealing in Coalburn, done in place
All of the old sealant is cut out, treat any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. We work on wet rooms, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people contact us are gaps by the taps and discoloured, yellow sealant.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

Resealing in Coalburn: why it matters
Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.
Why Coalburn customers choose us
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

How it works
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes about two hours for a bath, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We make sure the joint is completely dry.
- For a bath, we fill it 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Ensure the area is dry
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Advice

Also in Coalburn
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
For landlords and businesses
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Wipe the joints dry after use
Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
Prices and what affects them
We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- How much damage there is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The type of damage
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
What a repair cannot fix
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- A flexing bath
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Hidden water damage
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
Coalburn questions
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
How long does silicone take to cure?
You will get the curing time from us, usually around a day.
Do you cover the whole of South Lanarkshire?
Everywhere in the UK, Coalburn included. Travel is included in the price.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Coalburn.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
Common problems we fix in Coalburn
Joints split if the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed while the bath was empty.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Leaks at the edges
- Black spots in the silicone
- Gaps in the seal
What to look for in a quote
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How your room will be protected
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
