I let a flat near Stranraer station. Can you help?

Bathroom resealing for homes and businesses in Leswalt
Showers work their sealant harder than baths. Tray edges, screen profiles and wet room joints all rely on silicone to stay watertight. Each gets a bead of anti-fungal sanitary silicone, tooled smooth so water runs off instead of sitting in a ridge. Typical jobs include damp behind the bath or under the tray and cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone, across wet rooms, baths and kitchen worktops & upstands.
Being further from a city doesn’t change the work: everything old is cut out, the joints are cleaned and dried, and new sealant or grout goes in. We just plan the journey and access beforehand.
Our work is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

Signs you need bathroom resealing in Leswalt
Baths and trays move. An acrylic bath flexes under load, and a tray that isn’t fully bedded can rock. Over time the joint tears or pulls away from the tile.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Water getting behind the kitchen upstand
- Splits where the tray meets the wall
- Black mould in the silicone that will not clean off
- Water escaping at the shower enclosure
Rented homes near Stranraer station change hands often, and mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets.
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether they’re fully insured
- How the colour is chosen
- How long the guarantee is

The process
At the end, we look at the finished work together. The work normally takes a couple of hours for a single bath or shower, depending on how much there is to do.

- 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.
- We finish the joint, clear up and tell you how long to leave it before it gets wet.
How to prepare
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

Bathroom resealing around Leswalt
Leswalt is close to the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, which wears sealant and grout out faster than in a quiet home. Private landlords in Scotland must be registered and 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.
Homes close to Leswalt Parish Church include some older properties, and bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.
Leswalt is about 3 miles north-west of Stranraer, in Dumfries and Galloway. From the centre of Leswalt to the outskirts, bathroom resealing is available for homes and businesses alike, from flats and houses to offices and hotels. Leswalt is one of 138 towns and villages in Dumfries and Galloway where we work for bathroom resealing. Our Glasgow page covers work nearby, about 72 miles away.

How the job changes by surface
Shower trays & enclosures
The vertical joint where a screen profile meets the wall is a common leak point. We reseal it along with the base of the enclosure, sealing the side the enclosure’s instructions call for.
Baths
The long joint down the side of a bath is where most leaks start, particularly where there’s a shower over the bath. It gets one smooth bead of anti-fungal silicone.
For landlords and businesses
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. We can quote for more than one property at once.
We work for landlords and agents as well as householders. Sealant work between tenants is a simple way to keep a property in good order before the next move-in.
Why it’s worth doing now in Leswalt
Leaving a split or mouldy bead only stores up trouble. Once water is behind the bath, it can reach floorboards, panels and the ceiling underneath, and that is a far bigger job than a reseal. Exposed walls in smaller Scottish places take a lot of wind and rain, and once water gets behind a failed joint, damp in stone or harled walls is slow to dry out.
Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You will know the price before we begin.

Can I do it myself?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
