Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Devonburn, South Lanarkshire
Local bath resealing for Devonburn: a fixed quote from photos, a tidy visit and a one-year guarantee.
- Black mould in the sealant

- A messy previous reseal
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Bath resealing in Devonburn, done in place
All of the old sealant is cut out, deal with any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. We regularly repair wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and baths, and the jobs we see most are silicone smeared on tiles and black mould in the sealant.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes around two hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Open a window if you can
Getting a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

What we are called out for in Devonburn
No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Black mould in the sealant
- Gaps in the seal
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- A messy previous reseal

Prices and what affects them
There’s no charge for travel to Devonburn. The price comes down to:
- The material
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Unusual colours or finishes
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send photos for a quote
You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Something in shot to show the size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Most customers in Devonburn get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Air the room after use
- Keep bottles off the joints
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, typically around 24 hours.
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.
Why it’s worth resealing in Devonburn
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Landlord and trade work in Devonburn
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Your questions about bath resealing in Devonburn
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
