Trusted bath resealing in Strathore

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.

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

Bath resealing in Strathore, done in place

Baths, trays, basins and kitchen worktops all get resealed, with mould-resistant sanitary silicone. A typical reseal takes a couple of hours, then it needs to cure. We regularly repair wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths, and the jobs we see most are discoloured, yellow sealant and gaps in the seal.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it.

How it works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take about two hours for a bath. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Open a window after bathing

Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use.

Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Honest limits

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

  • Hidden water damage
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • A flexing bath

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

We don’t charge extra for travel to Strathore. The price depends on:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Strathore. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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 then the old filler has to be removed first.

Why reseal now?

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is and protects the walls and floor. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Your questions about bath resealing in Strathore

Do you seal over the old sealant?

All the old sealant comes out. New silicone won’t bond to old.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.

Are there extra charges for Strathore?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

What happens after I send pictures?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

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

For landlords and businesses

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Fife and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
