Bath resealing in Grange of Lindores without replacing anything

All of the old sealant is cut out, treat any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. Common call-outs are for sealant that’s split or lifting and missing sealant behind the taps, across basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and baths.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it.

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

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.

Common problems we fix in Grange of Lindores

In time, even good sealant discolours. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles

Before booking anyone

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • What prep work is covered
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How your room will be protected

Choosing a repair company

Resealing in Grange of Lindores: why it matters

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Grange of Lindores

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Common questions in Grange of Lindores

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

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

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

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.

The process

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a couple of hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Make sure the area is dry

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Keep bottles off the joints

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally around 24 hours.

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
