Trusted bath resealing in Inchmarlo

What happens on the day

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes about two hours for a bath. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Ensure the area is dry

About our bath resealing in Inchmarlo

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and a new seal stops it. If you are dealing with gaps in the seal and leaks at the edges, we can generally put it right.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

When we’d advise against a repair

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

What bath resealing costs

You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many areas need work
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed price

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Inchmarlo: your questions answered

How long will it take?

Generally a couple of hours, plus curing time.

Does someone need to be in?

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

Can tenants book a repair?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do you work in Inchmarlo?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Inchmarlo and the rest of Aberdeenshire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Landlord and trade work in Inchmarlo

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Inchmarlo as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best:

  • Keep the joints dry
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in

Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Resealing in Inchmarlo: why it matters

Resealing costs very little and protects the walls and floor. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
