About our bath resealing in Rora

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Common call-outs are for water getting behind the bath or tray and mould you can’t clean out, on shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & sinks.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Rora and across Aberdeenshire.

Rora questions

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.

What do you need from me?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

How long does silicone take to cure?

Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Movement is the usual cause. We fill the bath before sealing it.

What happens next?

You will get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.

Repairs by material

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Rora

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Aberdeenshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • A flexing bath
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

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

Materials we repair

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

Is resealing worth it?

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why book with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • One visit for most repairs

See our pricing.

Looking after it afterwards

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

  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off

Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing.

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Signs you need bath resealing in Rora

Poor ventilation speeds things up: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould takes hold.

Contact us if you’ve noticed:

  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles

Questions to ask before you book

  • How long it needs to cure
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What protection goes down before work starts

10 questions to ask before you book

What happens on the day

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a couple of hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

How to prepare

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Prices and what affects them

A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The type of damage
  • Access to the area

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send photos for a quote

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A photo taken from further back
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. 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.
