Bath resealing for Roadside of Kinneff homes

How we handle bath resealing in Roadside of Kinneff

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. If you are dealing with leaks at the edges and gaps by the taps, we can help, on kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and basins & vanity units alike.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Keeping it looking good

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Keep the joints dry

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

The process

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes a couple of hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

What affects the price in Roadside of Kinneff

We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The type of damage

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Roadside of Kinneff. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

When a repair is not the answer

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

What we work on

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

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.

Work for landlords and builders

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.

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

Roadside of Kinneff questions

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We come back with a fixed price. You’re under no obligation.

Can you quote from photos?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

What information do you need?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Roadside of Kinneff.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.

Why reseal now?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
