Bath resealing in Toryglen, done in place
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. Whether it’s discoloured, yellow sealant and sealant that’s split or lifting, we can usually put it right, on baths, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & sinks alike.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Why reseal now?
Resealing costs very little and protects the walls and floor. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Repairs by material
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Air the room after use
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Your questions about bath resealing in Toryglen
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you price it without visiting?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone will not bond to old.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which generally takes about two hours for a bath. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We ensure the joint is completely dry.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Have a window or extractor fan available
