Trusted bath resealing in Taynuilt

Landlord and trade work in Taynuilt

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Argyll and Bute and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

About our bath resealing in Taynuilt

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and a new seal stops it. Whether it’s sealant that’s split or lifting and an untidy old seal, we can usually put it right, on wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units alike.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Taynuilt and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

How to compare quotes

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes around two hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

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

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Questions from Taynuilt

When can I use the bath after resealing?

We’ll give you the curing time.

Is there a guarantee?

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

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

Why does mould come back so fast?

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

What information do you need?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Can new silicone go over old?

All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

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

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

Materials we work on in Taynuilt

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

Repairs by material

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Shower trays

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

What affects the price in Taynuilt

You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • The material and finish
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What kind of damage it is

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

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, and the work is guaranteed.

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Give the seal a regular clean

Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
