Fixed-price bath resealing in High Earnock and the surrounding area, done in a single visit in most cases and guaranteed for a year.
- An untidy old seal
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Mould you can’t clean out

Bath resealing in High Earnock without replacing anything
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. We’re often asked to fix unsealed corners and an untidy old seal, in baths, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & sinks.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Landlord and trade work in High Earnock
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, 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.
Signs you need bath resealing in High Earnock
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.
Look out for any of the following:
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Leaks at the edges
What your quote should include
- Aftercare advice
- How soon you can use it again
- What prep work is covered
- Who will actually do the work
Your questions about bath resealing in High Earnock
What happens next?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no obligation to book.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
How long does a reseal take?
A bath or shower usually takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across South Lanarkshire.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Prices and what affects them
A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- Access to the area
- The material and finish
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
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 price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Send pictures for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Send us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in High Earnock, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Why reseal now?
Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How it works
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes a couple of hours. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
How to prepare
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Get a quote
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Advice
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Let steam out after showers
Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.
