Bath resealing for Slamannan homes

Bath resealing at your home in Slamannan

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Our technicians work on wet rooms, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks, and people most often call us about missing sealant behind the taps and damp near the bath.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Slamannan and across Falkirk.

Why reseal now?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

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

How we price bath resealing

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

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How hard the colour is to match

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Where you are, by postcode

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, generally around 24 hours.

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Slamannan questions

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.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath or shower and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Are you accredited?

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

How long before I can shower?

Generally after around 24 hours. We will tell you the exact time.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Typically poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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, then guarantee it for a year.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Slamannan

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a couple of hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
