Bath resealing in Strontian

About our bath resealing in Strontian

A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. We regularly repair basins & vanity units, baths and shower trays & enclosures, and people most frequently call us about leaks at the edges and silicone coming away from the tiles.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Your questions about bath resealing in Strontian

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Do you come to Strontian?

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

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Highland, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to about two hours for a bath, tidy-up included.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

Advice

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Keep the joints dry
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting

Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

What we’re called out for in Strontian

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

Look out for these signs:

  • Gaps by the taps
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray

Questions to ask before you book

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

How we price bath resealing

We charge the same across the UK, including Strontian. What changes the price is:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Strontian. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Most customers in Strontian get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

When we would advise against a repair

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Hidden water damage
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
