Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Port Ellen, Argyll and Bute
We travel to Port Ellen for bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.
- Sealant that is split or lifting
- Black spots in the silicone
- A messy previous reseal
Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Keep the joints dry
Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
Bath resealing in Port Ellen without replacing anything
We reseal baths, shower trays, basins and worktops using mould-resistant silicone. A typical reseal takes a couple of hours, plus curing time. Our technicians work on basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms, and the jobs we see most are sealant that’s split or lifting and silicone smeared on tiles.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
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.
What bath resealing costs
We don’t charge extra for travel to Port Ellen. The price depends on:
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The colour and finish to match
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A photo taken from further back
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any details about the material
Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Port Ellen, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Repairs by material
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
What a repair cannot fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures

Your questions about bath resealing in Port Ellen
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
Normally about a day later. We will tell you the exact time.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide. Prices don’t change with location.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone will not bond to old.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a couple of hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Ask for a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
