Bath resealing in Helensburgh, done in place
We cut out all of the old sealant, treat any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. We work on shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and basins & vanity units, and common reasons people contact us are mould you can’t clean out and gaps in the seal.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
When a repair is not the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Hidden water damage
- Hollow or loose tiles
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Wipe the joints dry after use
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, usually around 24 hours.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The colour and finish to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It usually takes a couple of hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We make sure the joint is completely dry.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap 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
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Common problems we fix in Helensburgh
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning cannot get it all out.
Common reasons people in Helensburgh contact us are:
- Black mould in the sealant
- Unsealed corners
- Gaps in the seal
- Leaks at the edges
Comparing quotes
- What aftercare is recommended
- How your room will be protected
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Whether they match the colour on site
Is resealing worth it?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

Helensburgh questions
What does bath resealing cost?
Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your G84 postcode.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
We’ll give you the curing time, usually around a day.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
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.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
