Trusted bath resealing in Cromarty

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Air the room after use
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Store bottles on a shelf

Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

How to compare quotes

Common questions in Cromarty

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

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

Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

Can you quote from photos?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

What areas do you cover?

All of Highland, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Highland.

Do you come to Cromarty?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Cromarty. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Cromarty as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

What we cannot put right

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Hidden water damage
  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

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

Repairs by material

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Why reseal now?

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes about two hours for a bath, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
