Bath resealing in Crocketford without replacing anything
A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they protect the walls and floor. We work on shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & sinks, and people most often call us about an untidy old seal and gaps in the seal.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Resealing in Crocketford: why it matters
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Landlord and trade work in Crocketford
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What we’re called out for in Crocketford
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.
The things customers generally mention when they call are:
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
- Black mould in the sealant
- An untidy old seal
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
Questions to ask before you book
- How to care for the finish
- How your room will be protected
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- How long it needs to cure
Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Keep the joints dry
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and do not stand bottles on the seal.
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.
When a repair is not the answer
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
Different materials, different repairs
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
What happens on the day
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a couple of hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
