  • Gaps in the seal

Choosing a repair company

Bath resealing in Fettercairn, done in place

A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. Typical jobs include black spots in the silicone and gaps by the taps, across wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Prices and what affects them

We do not charge extra for travel to Fettercairn. The price depends on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book.

How to get a fixed price

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.

Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Questions from Fettercairn

When can I use the bath after resealing?

Typically after around 24 hours. We will tell you the exact time.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

How long does a reseal take?

Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.

Why it’s worth resealing in Fettercairn

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is and protects the walls and floor. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why us?

  • One price list for the whole UK
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

Take a look at our full price list.

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take around two hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Open a window if you can
  • Make sure the area is dry

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
