Bathroom & kitchen resealing in Davidston, Highland
Problem with your baths, showers and worktops in Davidston? We remove the old material, prepare the joints and seal them properly, with a one-year guarantee.
- Damp behind the bath or under the tray
- A joint torn by a bath that flexes
- A reseal done over the top of the old bead
Bathroom resealing in Davidston, done properly
We fill the bath before sealing it. The weight settles the bath to its lowest point, so the bead is not stretched the first time someone gets in. It’s a small step that rushed reseals tend to skip. If you’re dealing with damp behind the bath or under the tray and cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone, we can help, whatever the surface.
Across smaller places in Scotland, homes range from stone and harled cottages to newer houses. Where a building moves, cracked grout and split sealant are usually the first signs.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, whatever its size.

The process
Good joint work is mostly preparation, so that is where we spend the time. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. All told, the work takes a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen. For a place like Davidston, longer drives are planned in advance. Tell us about tracks, gates, a ferry crossing or anything unusual about getting there.
- We cover the area around the joints we are working on.
- Old sealant is sliced away and the residue removed.
- We treat any mould and let the joint dry properly.
- Baths are filled first, then anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied in a colour to suit.
- The joint is finished neatly and we explain when it can get wet.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

Is Davidston within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Do you cover Davidston for bathroom resealing?

Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint.
How long does a bath or shower reseal take?
Allow a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers. You will know how long to expect before any work starts.
Where do you work from?
We’re a Crawley-based firm. Our area covers South East England, London and Scotland.
Will you leave a mess?

Do you work for hotels and businesses?
Yes. Commercial and hotel work is a large part of what we do, as well as homes. Working times can be discussed when we quote.

Housing providers, facilities teams and property managers book us too. We can quote a run of properties together, and we are fully insured.
Letting agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the address, the job and how access works.
Why it’s worth doing now in Davidston
Dealing with sealant early is a short job: the work takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom. Left until water gets through, the job can grow to lifting panels, drying out and decorating. In an older home around Davidston, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is a far bigger job than the sealant.
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.

Should I try it myself first?
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.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.
Davidston homes and their sealant
Davidston is within about 1 mile of the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. 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.
Around Davidston, as everywhere, bathroom resealing is only as good as the preparation behind it.

How the job changes by surface
Baths
The long joint down the side of a bath is where most leaks start, especially under a shower. We finish it with a single, even bead of anti-fungal silicone, tooled so water can’t sit on it.
Wet rooms
If a wet room leaks, the cause may be the tanking or the drain rather than the joints. We reseal the joints and will tell you if the water seems to be coming from somewhere else.
What affects the cost of bathroom resealing
Your quote is based on your job. We look at:
- The number of rooms or windows
- Access and height
- Any working-time requirements on site
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
The cost depends on the amount of work, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. You will have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

When to call us in Davidston
Plenty of failed sealant has been laid over the top of older sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, so it lifts, lets water in and traps mould underneath.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Two layers of silicone, both failing
- Black spots spreading through the bead
- A messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal
- Gaps between the worktop and the wall
If you let a flat or house near Invergordon station, a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for.
