Bath resealing in Hill of Keir

Why reseal now?

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why us?

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Work done at your home or business
  • A fixed quote before booking

How we handle bath resealing in Hill of Keir

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Our technicians work on wet rooms, baths and basins & vanity units, and people most frequently call us about an untidy old seal and silicone coming away from the tiles.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hill of Keir as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Your questions about bath resealing in Hill of Keir

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath or shower and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Typically because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

Is repairing better than replacing?

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

How much does bath resealing cost in Hill of Keir?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Sinks and worktops

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

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Let steam out after showers

Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

When we’d advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

  • Basins & vanity units
  • Wet rooms
  • Baths
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Shower trays & enclosures

What we are called out for in Hill of Keir

Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed while the bath was empty.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Gaps in the seal
  • An untidy old seal
  • Unsealed corners
  • Damp near the bath

Questions to ask before booking

  • How your room will be protected
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether the price covers travel

Choosing a repair company

The process

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes about two hours for a bath, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Ask for a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
