Bath resealing in Craigie, done in place

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Our technicians work on kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units, and common reasons people contact us are silicone smeared on tiles and damp near the bath.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

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.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Common questions in Craigie

What areas do you cover?

We cover the whole UK, including Craigie and the rest of East Ayrshire. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Damp is the cause. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.

Do you work in Craigie?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Craigie for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

How do I book?

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

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Craigie?

We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

How we price bath resealing

Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send photos for a quote

You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

What we can’t put right

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

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we repair

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

What we are called out for in Craigie

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed while the bath was empty.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Gaps in the seal
  • Gaps by the taps
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Leaks at the edges

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How soon you can use it again
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • What happens if they find more damage

10 questions to ask before you book

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

How the visit works

You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take about two hours for a bath, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We ensure 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

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.
