Bath resealing for Throsk homes

How we price bath resealing

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

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material and finish

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • What it’s made of, if you know

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

About our bath resealing in Throsk

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. We work on basins & vanity units, wet rooms and baths, and common reasons people get in touch are a messy previous reseal and silicone coming away from the tiles.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Common questions in Throsk

Do you cover the whole of Stirling?

We cover the entire UK, including Throsk and the rest of Stirling. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

How long does silicone take to cure?

We’ll give you the curing time.

Can tenants book a repair?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

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

Are there extra charges for Throsk?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Baths

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

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Air the room after use

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

What we cannot put right

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Hidden water damage

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we work on in Throsk

  • Baths
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Basins & vanity units

How it works

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a couple of hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know about parking or access

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
