Advice
Bath resealing in Little Scotland, done in place
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. Whether it’s old sealant that looks dirty and silicone smeared on tiles, we can help, whatever the material.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Little Scotland as everywhere else we work.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Resealing in Little Scotland: why it matters
Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

FAQs for Little Scotland
When can I use the bath after resealing?
We will give you the curing time, usually around a day.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
What happens next?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Little Scotland
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
What bath resealing costs
There’s no area surcharge for Little Scotland. What changes the price is:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How much damage there is
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- The material, if you know it
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
If you are in Little Scotland and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
