Bath resealing at your home in Nitshill
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. We are frequently asked to fix an untidy old seal and sealant that’s split or lifting, in basins & vanity units, wet rooms and baths.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What we are called out for in Nitshill
Sealant doesn’t last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Black mould in the sealant
- Unsealed corners
- Leaks at the edges
- Stained silicone
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What prep work is covered
- What happens if they find more damage
- What protection goes down before work starts
The process
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a couple of hours, including clearing up.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- For a bath, we fill it 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.
Before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
Ask for a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Advice
Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.
What a repair can’t fix
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Hidden water damage
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we work on in Nitshill

Why reseal now?
Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Why Nitshill customers choose us

Your questions about bath resealing in Nitshill
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
How long will it take?
A bath or shower normally takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
How long does silicone take to cure?
We will give you the curing time.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Open a window after bathing
- Keep the joints dry
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
How we price bath resealing
There is no area surcharge for Nitshill. What changes the price is:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many areas need work
- How easy the damage is to reach
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- What it’s made of, if you know
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
