Bath resealing near Strathpeffer

About our bath resealing in Strathpeffer

Baths, trays, basins and kitchen worktops all get resealed, with mould-resistant sanitary silicone. Most jobs take a couple of hours, then it needs to cure. We’re often asked to fix discoloured, yellow sealant and a messy previous reseal, in wet rooms, basins & vanity units and baths.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

When to call us in Strathpeffer

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed with the bath empty.

  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Gaps in the seal
  • Silicone smeared on tiles

How to compare quotes

How we price bath resealing

We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Why reseal now?

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes about two hours for a bath. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.

How to prepare

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

How to get a price

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

How to care for the repair

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

  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Let steam out after showers

Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

Repairs by material

Shower trays

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

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Honest limits

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Movement in the bath or tray

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Strathpeffer: your questions answered

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

What does bath resealing cost?

Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

What information do you need?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Do you work in Strathpeffer?

We do. We send a technician to Strathpeffer for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Normally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
