Bath resealing in Culross

When a repair is not the answer

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • A flexing bath
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Bath resealing at your home in Culross

All of the old sealant is cut out, deal with any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. Our technicians work on kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and baths, and common reasons people get in touch are a messy previous reseal and gaps by the taps.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Open a window after bathing
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Keep the joints dry

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

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

Different materials, different repairs

Shower trays

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

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Resealing in Culross: why it matters

Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What you get with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

Common questions in Culross

How long before I can shower?

You will get the curing time from us, normally around a day.

Do you come to Culross?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Culross. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

What happens next?

You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.

What does bath resealing cost?

Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

What do you need from me?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

All the old sealant comes out. New silicone will not bond to old.

What affects the price in Culross

There is no charge for travel to Culross. The price comes down to:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed quote

You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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, and the work is guaranteed.

How the visit works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take around two hours. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. We dry the joint 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, taps included.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Getting a price

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.
