Typical jobs include old sealant that looks dirty and missing sealant behind the taps, across basins & vanity units, baths and shower trays & enclosures.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
For landlords and businesses
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Kilmory use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for about two hours for a bath from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We ensure the joint is completely dry.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.
Preparing for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Questions from Kilmory
How do I book?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Which areas do you work in?
The whole UK, including all of North Ayrshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.
What does bath resealing cost?
We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
How long does resealing take?
A bath or shower usually takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Why it’s worth resealing in Kilmory
Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
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.
Prices and what affects them
Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- How much damage there is
- How hard the colour is to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed price
You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- Details of any past repairs
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your KA27 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
When we’d advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A flexing bath
- Hidden water damage
- Hollow or loose tiles
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
