About our bath resealing in Riddrie

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. Typical jobs include stained silicone and black spots in the silicone, on wet rooms, baths and shower trays & enclosures.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Riddrie and across Glasgow.

Can I fix it myself?

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 do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Common questions in Riddrie

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do you cover the entire of Glasgow?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Riddrie. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

Are there extra charges for Riddrie?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

What affects the price in Riddrie

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • The material
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Access to the area
  • How many items we do on one visit

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • One picture of the whole bath or shower
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • The material, if you know it

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Resealing in Riddrie: 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. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Why book with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

See our full price list.

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Air the room after use
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally around 24 hours.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Repairs by material

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

What a repair can’t fix

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • A flexing bath
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

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

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes around two hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
