How we handle bath resealing in Ruisgarry

Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. Whether it’s black spots in the silicone and water getting behind the bath or tray, we can generally put it right.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Ruisgarry and across Na h-Eileanan Siar.

Ruisgarry: your questions answered

How long does silicone take to cure?

We will give you the curing time, typically around a day.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

What happens if you find more damage?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

What happens after I send photos?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.

Do I have to be there?

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

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Ruisgarry?

Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Resealing in Ruisgarry: why it matters

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. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why book with us

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

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, with the joint fully dried first.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Ruisgarry

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Do you need bath resealing in Ruisgarry?

Poor ventilation speeds things up: damp hangs around, and mould takes hold.

  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Sealant that is split or lifting
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Silicone smeared on tiles

10 questions to ask before you book

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to around two hours, tidy-up included.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Advice

When we’d advise against a repair

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Hidden water damage
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Air the room after use

Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

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