Bath resealing for Dundrennan homes

Bath resealing in Dundrennan, done in place

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Whether it’s silicone smeared on tiles and stained silicone, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Dumfries and Galloway.

Signs you need bath resealing in Dundrennan

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: damp hangs around, and mould takes hold.

Most people contact us after spotting something like this:

  • Mould you cannot clean out
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles

Why it’s worth resealing in Dundrennan

Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why book with us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • No need to remove anything
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

See our prices page.

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Keep the joints dry
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off

Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

Dundrennan questions

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

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

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Do you work in Dundrennan?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Dundrennan for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What a repair cannot fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Dundrennan

  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Wet rooms
  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Baths

Can I fix it myself?

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.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

How the visit works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take around two hours, tidy-up included.

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

How to prepare

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

How to get a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower, we can give you a fixed quote.

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

If you manage property in Dundrennan, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

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.

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
