Bathroom resealing in Locheport
Showers work their sealant harder than baths. Trays, enclosures, screen profiles and wet room floors all need a flexible, waterproof seal. They’re resealed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone, tooled smooth so water runs off instead of sitting in a ridge. We work on baths, sinks & splashbacks and basins & vanity units, and common reasons people get in touch are a bead that has pulled away from the tiles and damp behind the bath or under the tray.
For a place like Locheport, the job is the same as anywhere: 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.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee.

DIY versus a professional finish
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.

What happens on the day
A visit follows a simple pattern: we look at the joints together, protect the area around them, carry out the job and tidy away. Most jobs take two to three hours for a typical bath, depending on how much old sealant there is. Outside jobs in Locheport need a dry day, because sealant will not bond to a wet joint, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.
- We look at every joint first and check for movement or leaks.
- Every trace of the old bead is removed, including the thin smear on the tiles.
- The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
- With the joint dry, and any bath loaded with water, a single bead of anti-fungal silicone is applied.
- We tool the bead to a neat finish and give you the cure time, usually around 24 hours.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Mention any tricky access

Common problems we fix in Locheport
No sealant lasts indefinitely. Every shower, every splash and every wipe with a cleaner take their toll over the years, and how long it lasts comes down to use, cleaning and ventilation.
People normally contact us after spotting something like this:
- A reseal done over the top of the old bead
- Smears of silicone across the tiles
- Water getting behind the bath panel
- Water getting behind the kitchen upstand
For jobs in and around Locheport, choosing the right material for each joint is as important as a tidy finish.
What to look for in a quote
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
- Is VAT in the price?
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- Whether they’re fully insured

How to look after the new joints
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:
- Give the silicone its full cure time
- Move toiletries away from the joint
- Never pick at the silicone with a blade
- Clean with a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth
Treat the new bead gently when you clean: warm soapy water and a soft cloth do the job. Scourers and blades can nick the surface, because a damaged bead gives mould a foothold.
Mould that starts as a few spots spreads through the bead. When it has grown right through, it rarely cleans out, and nearby grout often goes the same way. Replacing the sealant early keeps the job small.
