Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they protect the walls and floor. We work on shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks, and people most often call us about unsealed corners and a messy previous reseal.

Keeping it looking good

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Let steam out after showers

Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Prices and what affects them

You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material and finish
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

We do not add 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.

Send pictures for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Duntocher as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in West Dunbartonshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why book with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

What happens on the day

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes about two hours for a bath. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Clear the area around the damage

How to get a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Advice

Your questions about bath resealing in Duntocher

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Are there extra charges for Duntocher?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.

How long does resealing take?

Normally a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Repairs by material

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

When to call us in Duntocher

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.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Stained silicone
  • Damp near the bath
  • Black spots in the silicone

What your quote should include

  • What preparation is included
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Who turns up on the day
