About our bath resealing in Lochcarron

All of the old sealant is cut out, deal with any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. We regularly repair wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths, and people most frequently call us about gaps by the taps and an untidy old seal.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Lochcarron as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Common problems we fix in Lochcarron

No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

Customers usually contact us about:

  • Gaps by the taps
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Gaps in the seal
  • Stained silicone

What your quote should include

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How soon you can use it again
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

10 questions to ask before booking

What affects the price in Lochcarron

We don’t charge extra for travel to Lochcarron. The price comes down to:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

How to get a fixed quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A photo taken from further back

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Your questions about bath resealing in Lochcarron

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

How long does a reseal take?

A bath or shower generally takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.

Do you charge for travel?

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

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.

How do I book?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Do you cover the whole of Highland?

Everywhere in the UK, Lochcarron included. Travel is included in the price.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

How the visit works

We turn up when we said we would, 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 the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Getting a price

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best for years:

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

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.

Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Repairs by material

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Why reseal now?

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.
