Bath resealing in New Farm Loch without replacing anything
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. We regularly repair baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units, and common reasons people contact us are sealant that’s split or lifting and a messy previous reseal.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee.

What affects the price in New Farm Loch
Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Doing more than one item at once
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

Does someone need to be in?

DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
