How the visit works

You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a couple of hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Clear the area around the damage

How to get a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

Advice

What we’re called out for in Monifieth

No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

People typically call us after spotting something like this:

  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Mould you can’t clean out

What your quote should include

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What happens if they find more damage

Our hiring checklist

Monifieth: your questions answered

How long does silicone take to cure?

Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Are you accredited?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Do you come to Monifieth?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Monifieth and the rest of Dundee. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Store bottles on a shelf

Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

What a repair can’t fix

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

What we work on

  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Wet rooms
  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Baths

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 often lifts.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

What bath resealing costs

There’s no area surcharge for Monifieth. The price reflects:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your pictures

You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Resealing in Monifieth: why it matters

Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Monifieth. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • One visit for most repairs
  • No need to remove anything
