Bath resealing in Inverlochy

About our bath resealing in Inverlochy

We cut out all of the old sealant, treat any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. If you’re dealing with black mould in the sealant and an untidy old seal, we can generally put it right, on basins & vanity units, wet rooms and baths alike.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Inverlochy questions

Can tenants book a repair?

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

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Highland.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

How much does bath resealing cost in Inverlochy?

We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Is my repair covered?

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

How do I book?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Does someone need to be in?

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

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

What we are called out for in Inverlochy

Sealant doesn’t last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Damp near the bath
  • Unsealed corners
  • Stained silicone
  • Silicone smeared on tiles

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

Why reseal now?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

Why us?

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • One visit for most repairs

When a repair is not the answer

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we work on in Inverlochy

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

What we do, step by step

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a couple of hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Air the room after use
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, 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, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.
