Bath resealing in Kaimhill without replacing anything

Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. Whether it’s black mould in the sealant and damp near the bath, we can generally put it right, on kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures alike.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Common questions in Kaimhill

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Typically because the bath or tray moves. We fill the bath before sealing it.

Do you cover Kaimhill?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Kaimhill from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

How long before I can shower?

Generally after around 24 hours. We will tell you the exact time.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.

What a repair cannot fix

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

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

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Air the room after use
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

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

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, 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.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Aberdeen and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

How we price bath resealing

There is no charge for travel to Kaimhill. The price depends on:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What kind of damage it is

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower

For a price in Kaimhill, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Why it’s worth resealing in Kaimhill

Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
