Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best:

  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Keep the joints dry

Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

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.

Why reseal now?

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is, and it protects everything around the bath. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why book with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

Rothesay questions

How long will it take?

A bath or shower generally takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.

Do you cover the whole of Argyll and Bute?

The entire UK, including all of Argyll and Bute. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

We’ll give you the curing time.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Do you work in Rothesay?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Rothesay and the rest of Argyll and Bute. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow about two hours for a bath, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Clear the area around the damage

Common problems we fix in Rothesay

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: damp hangs around, and mould grows faster.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles

What your quote should include

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • When it can be used again
  • How to look after the finish
  • What happens if they find more damage

How to compare quotes

When we’d advise against a repair

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Movement in the bath or tray

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

Surfaces we repair

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

How we price bath resealing

There’s no charge for travel to Rothesay. The price comes down to:

  • How many areas need work
  • Access to the area
  • The type of damage
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from pictures

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Most customers in Rothesay get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
