Do you need bath resealing in Gergask?
Sealant doesn’t last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
Look out for these signs:
- An untidy old seal
- Unsealed corners
- Gaps in the seal
- Mould you can’t clean out
What to look for in a quote

Landlord and trade work in Gergask
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Highland and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Why reseal now?
Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

What bath resealing costs
We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The type of damage
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
- One sharp close-up of the damage
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
When a repair is not the answer
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Movement in the bath or tray
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
Materials we work on in Gergask
- Baths

Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Let steam out after showers
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for around two hours. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- We make sure the joint is completely dry.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Advice
Common questions in Gergask
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
How long will it take?
A bath or shower usually takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.
Are there extra charges for Gergask?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
