Bath resealing for Gauldry homes

How we handle bath resealing in Gauldry

A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they keep water out. We work on kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and baths, and the jobs we see most are leaks at the edges and black mould in the sealant.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Gauldry: your questions answered

How do I book?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

How long will it take?

Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

What happens after I send pictures?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Movement is the usual cause. We seal baths full of water.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

How to look after the repair

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Let steam out after showers

Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use.

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Prices and what affects them

Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • How much damage there is
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The colour and finish to match

Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your photos

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • What it’s made of, if you know

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Repairs by material

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Honest limits

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

What we work on

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

When to call us in Gauldry

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed with the bath empty.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Black spots in the silicone

What your quote should include

  • What prep work is covered
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How long it needs to cure

How to compare quotes

Why reseal now?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Gauldry. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why book with us

  • One price list for the whole UK
  • One visit for most repairs
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

Landlords, agents and businesses in Gauldry

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

What happens on the day

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes about two hours for a bath, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
