Bath resealing in Larkhall

The process

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take a couple of hours.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Why it’s worth resealing in Larkhall

Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

  • Mould you cannot clean out

FAQs for Larkhall

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath or shower and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Damp is the cause. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across South Lanarkshire.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the whole UK, including Larkhall and the rest of South Lanarkshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

How long will it take?

Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.

How to look after the repair

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Keep the joints dry

Avoid scraping the joints, and do not stand bottles on the seal.

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Hollow or loose tiles

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

What bath resealing costs

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The type of damage
  • What the surface is made of
  • Unusual colours or finishes

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
