Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Gairneybridge, Perth and Kinross
Bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone at your home in Gairneybridge, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Silicone coming away from the tiles

How we handle bath resealing in Gairneybridge
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. Whether it’s stained silicone and gaps by the taps, we can help, whatever the material.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

How the visit works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes a couple of hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Clear the area around the damage
Getting a price
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.
Advice
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Gairneybridge: your questions answered
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Can you quote from photos?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed price. You are under no obligation.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Typically because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.
What do you need from me?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
How long does silicone take to cure?
Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.
What a repair cannot fix
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- A flexing bath
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Baths
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Let steam out after showers
- Keep the joints dry
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
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 affects the price in Gairneybridge
You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
- How easy the damage is to reach
Every job is a little different, 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 doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Natural light rather than flash
- Where you are, by postcode
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
What we are called out for in Gairneybridge
Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed while the bath was empty.
