DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently 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 prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
How we handle bath resealing in Drumnadrochit
A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. If you’re dealing with water getting behind the bath or tray and discoloured, yellow sealant, we can help.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

FAQs for Drumnadrochit
Can you price it without visiting?
Usually, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
How long does resealing take?
Usually a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What a repair cannot fix
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

Prices and what affects them
Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Access to the area
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether we combine several jobs
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Natural light rather than flash
Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Drumnadrochit, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Signs you need bath resealing in Drumnadrochit

- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Black mould in the sealant
- Water getting behind the bath or tray

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 a couple of hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Make sure the area is dry
Ask for a price
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Keep the joints dry
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, usually around 24 hours.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
