Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Kinghorn, Fife
Our repair technicians come to Kinghorn for bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
- A messy previous reseal
- Stained silicone
How it works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take around two hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let us know about parking or access

About our bath resealing in Kinghorn
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. We work on baths, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units, and the jobs we see most are black spots in the silicone and stained silicone.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What else we do in Kinghorn
How to care for the repair
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Keep the joints dry
Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Common problems we fix in Kinghorn
Even good sealant eventually discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Black spots in the silicone
- A messy previous reseal
- Leaks at the edges
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

Kinghorn questions
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
Do you come to Kinghorn?
We do. Technicians travel to Kinghorn from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
How long does silicone take to cure?
We will give you the curing time, usually around a day.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
What bath resealing costs
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed price
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Where you are, by postcode
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.

Is resealing worth it?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
