Bath Resealing for Michaelston homes
Our technicians come to Michaelston for bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone. Everything is done in place, with a one-year guarantee.
- Mould you cannot clean out
- Gaps in the seal
- Unsealed corners
Bath resealing in Michaelston without replacing anything
Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. Our repair technicians work on basins & vanity units, wet rooms and baths, and people most frequently call us about water getting behind the bath or tray and missing sealant behind the taps.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
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, a professional repair is worth it.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
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.
The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which generally takes around two hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Preparing for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Your questions about bath resealing in Michaelston
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath or shower and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You are under no obligation.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Michaelston included. Travel is included in the price.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Landlord and trade work in Michaelston
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Keep the joints dry
- Open a window after bathing
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
What we’re called out for in Michaelston
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.
The things clients normally mention when they call are:
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Sealant that is split or lifting
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Black mould in the sealant
What your quote should include
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- How soon you can use it again
- How the room is protected while they work
When a repair is not the answer
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Hidden water damage
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Send photos for a quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
For a price in Michaelston, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
