Bath resealing near Gartloch

Bath resealing in Gartloch without replacing anything

A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Fresh joints make the entire room look cleaner, and they keep water out. Common call-outs are for silicone coming away from the tiles and leaks at the edges, on kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and wet rooms.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off

Avoid scraping the joints, 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.

Why it’s worth resealing in Gartloch

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

What we can’t put right

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • A flexing bath
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

What we’re called out for in Gartloch

Poor ventilation speeds things up: damp hangs around, and mould takes hold.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Unsealed corners
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Gaps in the seal
  • An untidy old seal

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

Choosing a repair company

The process

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a couple of hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Advice

How we price bath resealing

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • How many areas need work
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material and finish
  • The colour and finish to match

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from photos

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Details of any past repairs

Email us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your G69 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Your questions about bath resealing in Gartloch

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

What happens next?

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

When can I use the bath after resealing?

You’ll get the curing time from us.

How long does a reseal take?

A bath or shower generally takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
