Bath resealing at your home in Craigton
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Common call-outs are for an untidy old seal and old sealant that looks dirty, across basins & vanity units, wet rooms and baths.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

Prices and what affects them
There’s no area surcharge for Craigton. What changes the price is:
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Access to the area
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- A picture taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
If you are in Craigton and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Your questions about bath resealing in Craigton
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
How long will it take?
A bath or shower generally takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

DIY kit or professional repair?
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: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
When a repair is not the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Hidden water damage
- Movement in the bath or tray
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
Resealing in Craigton: why it matters
Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Why book with us
- One price list for the entire UK
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Work done at your home or business
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Air the room after use
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Use the extractor fan
- Keep the joints dry
Run 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. It may be more than a reseal, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
When to call us in Craigton
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning can’t get it all out.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Black mould in the sealant
- Leaks at the edges
What to look for in a quote
- What aftercare is recommended
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How the room is protected while they work
Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
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.
How it works
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take around two hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Getting a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
