How we handle bath resealing in Kilmun

All of the old sealant is cut out, deal with any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. Common call-outs are for discoloured, yellow sealant and mould you can’t clean out, on baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and wet rooms.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it.

Is resealing worth it?

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

FAQs for Kilmun

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

What bath resealing costs

We charge the same across the UK, including Kilmun. What changes the price is:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many areas need work
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

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

How to get a fixed quote

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A photo taken from further back

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

How to look after the repair

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Air the room after use
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Landlord and trade work in Kilmun

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.

For anyone letting property in or around Kilmun, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Do you need bath resealing in Kilmun?

Poor ventilation speeds things up: damp hangs around, and mould grows faster.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Black spots in the silicone
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Stained silicone

Questions to ask before booking

  • What preparation is included
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Choosing a repair company

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Sinks and worktops

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

Shower trays

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

How it works

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take around two hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

How to get a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
