DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Bath resealing in Old Balornock, done in place
Baths, trays, basins and kitchen worktops all get resealed, with mould-resistant sanitary silicone. A typical reseal takes a couple of hours, then it needs to cure. We regularly repair wet rooms, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people contact us are discoloured, yellow sealant and an untidy old seal.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Repairs by material
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
How we price bath resealing
There’s no charge for travel to Old Balornock. The price depends on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area
- The material
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Any details about the material
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes about two hours for a bath. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.
Getting ready for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
How to get a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Honest limits
We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Baths
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
What we are called out for in Old Balornock
Sealant does not last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Leaks at the edges
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Stained silicone
What your quote should include
- What prep work is covered
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- If travel is included in the price
- How long it needs to cure
Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Let steam out after showers
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, generally around 24 hours.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
