Why reseal now?
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

How we handle bath resealing in Dreghorn
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. We regularly repair kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and shower trays & enclosures, and people most frequently call us about silicone smeared on tiles and water getting behind the bath or tray.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in North Ayrshire.

What else we do in Dreghorn
Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Let steam out after showers
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, generally around 24 hours.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
The process
Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take about two hours for a bath, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- What it’s made of, if you know

DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
What we cannot put right
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Movement in the bath or tray
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
- Shower trays & enclosures
Common questions in Dreghorn
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Damp is the cause. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
How long before I can shower?
We will give you the curing time.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Can you price it without visiting?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
