Bath resealing near Leslie

Bath resealing at your home in Leslie

Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. Our technicians work on shower trays & enclosures, baths and wet rooms, and people most frequently call us about missing sealant behind the taps and old sealant that looks dirty.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What affects the price in Leslie

A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many areas need work

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a couple of hours, including clearing up.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

How to get a price

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Why reseal now?

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why Leslie customers choose us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Everything repaired in place

See our full price list.

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Ventilate the bathroom well

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally around 24 hours.

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Honest limits

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

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

Materials we repair

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

Repairs by material

Baths

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

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Common questions in Leslie

When can I use the bath after resealing?

Typically after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.

How long will it take?

Usually a couple of hours, plus curing time.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

What do you need from me?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

What happens after I send pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Landlord and trade work in Leslie

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Fife and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

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.
