Bath resealing for Tarsappie homes

About our bath resealing in Tarsappie

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 shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & sinks, and common reasons people get in touch are a messy previous reseal and missing sealant behind the taps.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Perth and Kinross.

How it works

Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes around two hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. We ensure the joint is completely dry.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Common questions in Tarsappie

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Usually because the bath or tray moves. We seal baths full of water.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Do you work in Tarsappie?

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

Why does mould come back so fast?

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

Can new silicone go over old?

Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

How long does silicone take to cure?

Typically after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What we can’t put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • A flexing bath
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Hollow or loose tiles

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

Resealing in Tarsappie: why it matters

Resealing costs very little. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

How we price bath resealing

There’s no area surcharge for Tarsappie. The price reflects:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas

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 doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send photos for a quote

Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any details about the material

Most customers in Tarsappie get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Can I fix it myself?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Perth and Kinross and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Tarsappie as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Do you need bath resealing in Tarsappie?

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Old sealant that looks dirty

Questions to ask before you book

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How the colour is matched
  • What preparation is included
  • What happens if they find more damage
