Trusted bath resealing in Port Dundas

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes around two hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Advice

How we handle bath resealing in Port Dundas

Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they keep water out. We regularly repair basins & vanity units, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people contact us are an untidy old seal and black spots in the silicone.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

What bath resealing costs

We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • Access to the area
  • The material
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Unusual colours or finishes

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any details about the material
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A photo taken from further back

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

What we cannot put right

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Movement in the bath or tray

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Signs you need bath resealing in Port Dundas

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Silicone smeared on tiles

Before you book anyone

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What prep work is covered

10 questions to ask before booking

How to care for the repair

Aftercare is simple:

  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Let steam out after showers

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

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
