Bath resealing in Inchmagrannachan

Bath resealing at your home in Inchmagrannachan

A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. We work on shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & sinks, and the jobs we see most are mould you can’t clean out and silicone smeared on tiles.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Inchmagrannachan as everywhere else we work.

Signs you need bath resealing in Inchmagrannachan

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed while the bath was empty.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Missing sealant behind the taps

Choosing a repair company

Landlords, agents and businesses in Inchmagrannachan

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

What we can’t put right

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

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Hidden water damage

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Air the room after use
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Store bottles on a shelf

Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

What bath resealing costs

We charge the same across the UK, including Inchmagrannachan. What changes the price is:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage
  • How many areas need work
  • Doing more than one item at once

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

What happens on the day

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes about two hours for a bath. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We make sure the joint is completely dry.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear the area around the damage

Getting a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Inchmagrannachan: your questions answered

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

How long does resealing take?

Typically a couple of hours, plus curing time.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

Normally about a day later. We’ll tell you the exact time.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
