Bath resealing for Craigiebuckler homes

How to care for the repair

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Keep the joints dry

Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use.

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.

About our bath resealing in Craigiebuckler

A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Fresh joints make the whole room look cleaner, and they protect the walls and floor. If you’re dealing with unsealed corners and water getting behind the bath or tray, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What affects the price in Craigiebuckler

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The type of damage
  • How many areas need work

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The material, if you know it
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

We price from pictures 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 you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Sinks and worktops

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

Shower trays

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

Honest limits

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

How the visit works

Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take about two hours for a bath, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  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, including around the taps.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
