Bath Resealing for Dunscore homes
Our technicians come to Dunscore for bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- An untidy old seal
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
What we do, step by step
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes about two hours for a bath. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- We make sure the joint is completely dry.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Open a window if you can
- Ensure the area is dry

Our repair technicians work on wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks, and common reasons people get in touch are unsealed corners and black spots in the silicone.

Your questions about bath resealing in Dunscore
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Do you work in Dunscore?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Dunscore from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
How long does resealing take?
Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best:
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Open a window after bathing
- Ventilate the bathroom well
Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

What a repair cannot fix
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

What your bath or shower is made of matters
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Even good sealant eventually discolours. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.
