Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Hazelbank, South Lanarkshire

- An untidy old seal
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
Is resealing worth it?
Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Bath resealing in Hazelbank without replacing anything
We cut out all of the old sealant, deal with any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. Our repair technicians work on shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks, and common reasons people contact us are unsealed corners and black spots in the silicone.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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.
Signs you need bath resealing in Hazelbank
Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.
Clients typically contact us about:
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
- Mould you can’t clean out
- Leaks at the edges
What to look for in a quote
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show

When we’d advise against a repair
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

The process
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes around two hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Getting a price
For a price in Hazelbank, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Advice
Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Wipe the joints dry after use
Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
Your questions about bath resealing in Hazelbank
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Do you work in Hazelbank?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Hazelbank. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What bath resealing costs
You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material and finish
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Send pictures for a quote
Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:
- Any details about the material
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
