Slackbuie: your questions answered

How long does a reseal take?

Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

What happens after I send pictures?

You will get a fixed quote back. There is no obligation to book.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

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

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

How much does bath resealing cost in Slackbuie?

We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Honest limits

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • A flexing bath
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, usually around 24 hours.

Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

What affects the price in Slackbuie

Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What kind of damage it is

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 photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Repairs by material

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take around two hours.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  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. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Ensure the area is dry

Getting a price

To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Why it’s worth resealing in Slackbuie

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. 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 make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What you get with us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Landlord and trade work in Slackbuie

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Do you need bath resealing in Slackbuie?

Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed while the bath was empty.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • An untidy old seal
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Unsealed corners
