Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
What we do, step by step
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a couple of hours, tidy-up included.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- 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.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Open a window if you can
Ask for a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Lochfoot: your questions answered
Do you seal over the old sealant?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Dumfries and Galloway.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
How long does resealing take?
Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
How we price bath resealing
Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What kind of damage it is
- The material
- How many items we do on one visit
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Where you are, by postcode
- Something in shot to show the size
- The material, if you know it
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Honest limits
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- Hidden water damage
- Hollow or loose tiles
- A flexing bath
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Basins & vanity units
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
Signs you need bath resealing in Lochfoot
In time, even good sealant discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- An untidy old seal
Questions to ask before you book
- What preparation is included
- How soon you can use it again
- How the room is protected while they work
- Who turns up on the day
Landlords, agents and businesses in Lochfoot
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.
Is resealing worth it?
Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
