Bath Resealing in Selkirk
Fixed-price bath resealing in Selkirk and the surrounding area, generally in one visit.
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Stained silicone
- Unsealed corners
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Bath resealing in Selkirk without replacing anything
Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they keep water out. Common call-outs are for gaps by the taps and damp near the bath, on basins & vanity units, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Questions from Selkirk
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
How much does bath resealing cost in Selkirk?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Something is moving. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We come back with a fixed price. You’re under no obligation.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
How it works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a couple of hours.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Ask for a price

How to care for the repair
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Open a window after bathing
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Store bottles on a shelf
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Repairs by material
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Common problems we fix in Selkirk
Sealant does not last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
The things customers generally mention when they call are:
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Black mould in the sealant
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Stained silicone

Prices and what affects them
We charge the same across the UK, including Selkirk. What changes the price is:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Access to the area
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Details of any past repairs
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.
Why it’s worth resealing in Selkirk
Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, 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 jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
