Bath resealing at your home in Kilmartin

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. Common call-outs are for an untidy old seal and stained silicone, in basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, usually around 24 hours.

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Kilmartin

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Kilmartin as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Common problems we fix in Kilmartin

No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Stained silicone
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Gaps in the seal

Before you book anyone

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Who turns up on the day

When a repair isn’t the answer

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

  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Different materials, different repairs

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a couple of hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.

How to prepare

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
