Bath resealing near West Tofts

Bath resealing in West Tofts, done in place

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. If you’re dealing with gaps by the taps and damp near the bath, we can help, whatever the material.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back.

What we are called out for in West Tofts

Even good sealant eventually discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Sealant that is split or lifting
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Stained silicone
  • Black spots in the silicone

Questions to ask before booking

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Who will actually do the work
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How your room will be protected

Our hiring checklist

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

  • Hidden water damage
  • A flexing bath
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Keep bottles off the joints

Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Questions from West Tofts

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can tenants book a repair?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

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

What areas do you cover?

We cover the whole UK, including West Tofts and the rest of Perth and Kinross. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

Do you come to West Tofts?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to West Tofts from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes around two hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Getting a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Related advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
