Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Riccarton, East Ayrshire
Bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone in Riccarton, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Gaps in the seal
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Use the extractor fan
Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
About our bath resealing in Riccarton
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. Typical jobs include old sealant that looks dirty and an untidy old seal, on basins & vanity units, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in East Ayrshire.

Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Resealing in Riccarton: why it matters
Resealing costs very little and protects the walls and floor. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
Why us?
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- No extra charge for your area
- Nothing taken out or refitted

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

When to call us in Riccarton
Sealant doesn’t last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
Most people contact us after spotting one of these:
- Leaks at the edges
- Mould you cannot clean out
- Gaps by the taps
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
Before booking anyone
- How your room will be protected
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
Prices and what affects them
You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- The type of damage
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
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 pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Details of any past repairs
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:
- Hollow or loose tiles
- A flexing bath
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Basins & vanity units
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It generally takes a couple of hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Open a window if you can
Getting a price

Do you come to Riccarton?

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Can you repair several things at once?

Can you quote from pictures?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
