What bath resealing costs

There is no charge for travel to Lochgelly. The price depends on:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material
  • Access to the area

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Send photos for a quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • The material, if you know it

Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your KY5 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Bath resealing in Lochgelly without replacing anything

A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Fresh joints make the whole room look cleaner, and they keep water out. Our repair technicians work on kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and basins & vanity units, and the jobs we see most are mould you can’t clean out and an untidy old seal.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

What we are called out for in Lochgelly

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Unsealed corners
  • Leaks at the edges
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Gaps in the seal

Our hiring checklist

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

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 then the old filler has to be removed first.

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow around two hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

How to get a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

Why reseal now?

Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
