Is resealing worth it?

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is and protects the walls and floor. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Take a look at our pricing.

What affects the price in Largs

Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • Access to the area
  • The material and finish
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Doing more than one item at once

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

Send pictures for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The material, if you know it
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

How it works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take about two hours for a bath, and we leave the room as we found it.

  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

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

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, and the work is guaranteed.

What we’re called out for in Largs

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning can’t get it all out.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed:

  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Unsealed corners
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • An untidy old seal

What to look for in a quote

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • How soon you can use it again
  • How the colour is matched

10 questions to ask before you book

Different materials, different repairs

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

Sinks and worktops

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

Honest limits

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

What we work on

  • Basins & vanity units
  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Baths
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Wet rooms

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Keep the joints dry

Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.
