Bath resealing near Ness

Why reseal now?

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

About our bath resealing in Ness

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Our repair technicians work on baths, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units, and the jobs we see most are water getting behind the bath or tray and gaps in the seal.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Na h-Eileanan Siar.

What bath resealing costs

There is no charge for travel to Ness. The price comes down to:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a fixed price

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

Common problems we fix in Ness

Sealant doesn’t last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Damp near the bath
  • Mould you cannot clean out

What your quote should include

  • Aftercare advice
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Who will actually do the work

Our hiring checklist

Your questions about bath resealing in Ness

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Na h-Eileanan Siar.

Can new silicone go over old?

All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

What a repair can’t fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Hollow or loose tiles

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which usually takes a couple of hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

How to get a price

To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
