Bath resealing near Newton of Falkland

How we handle bath resealing in Newton of Falkland

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. We regularly repair wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and baths, and the jobs we see most are damp near the bath and discoloured, yellow sealant.

Older homes around Newton of Falkland can have uneven walls and floors, which makes a neat, lasting seal more important.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Newton of Falkland as everywhere else we work.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

What happens on the day

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take around two hours. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use. Somewhere like Newton of Falkland needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives or where to park. Everything for the bath resealing comes with us in one trip.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

How we price bath resealing

A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Doing more than one item at once

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Newton of Falkland. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Any details about the material

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Signs you need bath resealing in Newton of Falkland

In time, even good sealant discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Gaps by the taps

If you let a flat or house near Ladybank station (about 2.8 miles north-east), we repair baths and showers between tenancies so it’s ready to let again quickly.

10 questions to ask before you book

Is resealing worth it?

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is, and it protects everything around the bath. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Replacement in Newton of Falkland means trades, travel and waste removal, while bath resealing is one trip.

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner

Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

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