About our bath resealing in Glenrothes
We cut out all of the old sealant, treat any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. If you are dealing with old sealant that looks dirty and an untidy old seal, we can help, whatever the material.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Fife.
Why reseal now?
Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why book with us
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- A fixed quote before you book
- A year’s guarantee on all work

Common questions in Glenrothes
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Glenrothes?
Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
What happens next?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Prices and what affects them
There’s no charge for travel to Glenrothes. The price depends on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Landlord and trade work in Glenrothes
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Glenrothes as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Do you need bath resealing in Glenrothes?
No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Sealant that is split or lifting
- Stained silicone

What a repair can’t fix
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Hidden water damage
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair

- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
