Bathroom resealing in Gordon

Common call-outs are for cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone and leaks into the floor or ceiling below, across kitchen worktops & upstands, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms.
In and around a place like Gordon, homes range from older stone-built properties to newer houses. Where a building moves, cracked grout and split sealant are generally the first signs.
Our work is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

Do you need bathroom resealing in Gordon?
Mould is the reason many people want their sealant replaced. Bathrooms without good ventilation keep the silicone damp for hours, and mould that has grown into the silicone normally will not clean off.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Black mould in the silicone that will not clean off
- Sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away
- Water getting behind the kitchen upstand
- Lumpy, uneven sealant from a DIY attempt
In and around Gordon, as anywhere, good bathroom resealing starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- What insurance they hold
- How hidden problems are handled
- Who turns up on the day
What happens if it’s left?
You do not need a new bathroom because the sealant looks bad. Replacing the joint is normally all it takes, as long as the fittings themselves are sound. If we find a deeper problem, you’ll hear it from us. In a place like Gordon, small leaks are easy to put off, but water behind a failed seal does the most damage when nobody’s watching.
The cost depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. You will have a clear quote before any work starts.

Surface by surface
Sinks & splashbacks
Water getting under the rim of an inset sink can soak the worktop. Where the sealant around the visible edge has failed, we renew it.
Kitchen worktops & upstands
Kitchen joints need more degreasing than bathroom ones, since cooking leaves a film that stops silicone sticking. The extra cleaning is what makes the bead last.

What bathroom resealing looks like in Gordon
Private landlords in Scotland must be registered and meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping fixtures and fittings in reasonable repair. Tired, leaking sealant is worth putting right before a new tenant moves in. Scottish Water supplies are generally soft, so limescale is less of a problem than in hard-water areas. But mould still grows into sealant and grout in a room that doesn’t dry out.
Homes close to East Church include some older properties, and timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

DIY versus a professional finish
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.

How the visit works
Our applicators work methodically: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. For most jobs that takes a couple of hours for a single bath or shower, and the area is left clean. Somewhere like Gordon 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.
- The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
- We let it dry fully and fill the bath with water before sealing.
- We apply anti-fungal sanitary silicone in one even bead and tool it neatly.
- We tidy up and give you the cure time, usually around 24 hours.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
