Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Leven, Fife
Fixed-price bath resealing in Leven and the surrounding area, normally in one visit.
- Sealant that is split or lifting
- Leaks at the edges
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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 usually the cheaper route.
Bath resealing in Leven without replacing anything
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. If you’re dealing with damp near the bath and discoloured, yellow sealant, we can help, whatever the material.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Leven and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Leven
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Questions from Leven
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.
Do you cover the whole of Fife?
The entire UK, including all of Fife. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
We’ll give you the curing time.
Can new silicone go over old?
All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Let steam out after showers
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Use the extractor fan
Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
How we price bath resealing
You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- Access to the area
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The type of damage
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. 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.
Quotes from your photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
How it works
You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It normally takes a couple of hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Getting a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Advice
Different materials, different repairs
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Why it’s worth resealing in Leven
Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
