Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Waterside, East Ayrshire

What your bath or shower is made of matters
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
How we handle bath resealing in Waterside
Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. Whether it’s old sealant that looks dirty and silicone coming away from the tiles, we can help, on shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and wet rooms alike.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

What we’re called out for in Waterside
Sealant doesn’t last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Leaks at the edges
- Black spots in the silicone
- Unsealed corners
- An untidy old seal
What your quote should include
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether they match the colour on site

Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Keep the joints dry
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Store bottles on a shelf
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, usually around 24 hours.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
Resealing in Waterside: why it matters
Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
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.
When we’d advise against a repair
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Hidden water damage
- A flexing bath

What bath resealing costs
We charge the same across the UK, including Waterside. What changes the price is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Waterside. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- The material, if you know it
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.
How it works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a couple of hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We make sure the joint is completely dry.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.
Preparing for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
