Bath resealing near Findochty

Bath resealing in Findochty, done in place

All of the old sealant is cut out, treat any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. Whether it’s leaks at the edges and mould you can’t clean out, we can generally put it right.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

What a repair cannot fix

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Movement in the bath or tray

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we work on in Findochty

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

Common problems we fix in Findochty

Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed with the bath empty.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Gaps in the seal
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Mould you cannot clean out

Questions to ask before booking

  • Who turns up on the day
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What happens if they find more damage

Our hiring checklist

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes around two hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Questions from Findochty

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

How long does silicone take to cure?

Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath or shower and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Findochty use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

How we price bath resealing

Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • How many areas need work
  • Access to the area
  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Send photos for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

There is no need for us to visit first. 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.

Is resealing worth it?

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
