About our bath resealing in Portree
Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they protect the walls and floor. Whether it’s gaps by the taps and black mould in the sealant, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Signs you need bath resealing in Portree
Even good sealant eventually discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A messy previous reseal
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Black spots in the silicone
- Missing sealant behind the taps

Is resealing worth it?
Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
What you get with us

Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Open a window after bathing
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Dry the seal after bathing
Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
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.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Portree questions
What areas do you cover?
All of Highland, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Do you come to Portree?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Portree and the rest of Highland. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Can new silicone go over old?
We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Normally because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
