Bath resealing in Kelvingrove, done in place
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. Our technicians work on shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths, and people most frequently call us about damp near the bath and stained silicone.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Before we arrive

Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Why it’s worth resealing in Kelvingrove
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is and protects the walls and floor. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

What bath resealing costs
You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Access to the area
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What kind of damage it is
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Kelvingrove. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Natural light rather than flash
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Something in shot to show the size
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Keep bottles off the joints
Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
