What happens on the day
There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Show us the job and we will take it from there. The work itself takes a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen, including the tidy-up. Somewhere like Bantaskin may be a longer drive, and the journey is planned ahead. Tell us about tracks, gates, a ferry crossing or anything unusual about getting there.
- We protect the area and cut out all of the old sealant, including the film left on the tiles.
- Next, the joint is cleaned and any mould is treated.
- The joint is left to dry, and baths are filled with water first.
- A single bead of anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied and tooled smooth.
- Finally we tidy up and explain the cure time before we leave.
Before we arrive
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints

Bathroom resealing in Bantaskin: local notes
Scottish Water supplies are generally soft, so limescale is less of a problem than in hard-water areas. Mould is another matter: a bathroom that stays damp still turns sealant and grout black. In Scotland, private landlords have to meet the Repairing Standard, which covers keeping fixtures and fittings in a reasonable state of repair. Tired, leaking sealant is worth putting right before a new tenant moves in.
Managing a site like Falkirk High School? Then its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. Rented homes near Falkirk High station change hands often, and fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay. For an older house near a landmark such as Falkirk, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

Why deal with it now?
Mould removers can fade the surface of a stained bead, but where mould is inside the silicone it usually comes back. The lasting answer is to remove the bead and start again. Exposed walls in smaller Scottish places take a lot of wind and rain, and damp in stone or harled walls takes a long time to dry once water gets behind a joint.
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

Surface by surface
Baths
Most bath leaks begin along the long edge, particularly where there’s a shower over the bath. We finish it with a single, even bead of anti-fungal silicone.
Kitchen worktops & upstands
Worktop joints get wet and wiped every day. The new bead is colour-matched where it shows.
Should I try it myself first?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
