Possilpark: your questions answered

Do you work in hotels near Possilpark?

Yes, hotels and guest houses are among the places we work. Rooms can be done a few at a time, so the building stays open.

I’m in a tenement in Possilpark. Could worn sealant affect the flat downstairs?

Yes, and the first sign is often a mark on the ceiling below. Cutting out the old sealant and laying a fresh bead puts a stop to it.

Can I choose the colour of the sealant?

We can use white, clear or a colour to suit. Where the joint is on show, we match it to the surface.

Can new silicone go straight over the old?

No, and it’s one of the main reasons reseals fail. We cut out all of the old sealant, clean the joint and start again.

Will it make a mess?

No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.

Are you fully insured?

Yes. Full insurance covers our work, and we can confirm the details when we quote.

Do you guarantee your resealing?

Yes. Our one-year guarantee covers every job, and we’re ARBOMaster approved applicators.

What does bathroom resealing cost?

Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Call for a quick quote.

Bathroom resealing for homes and businesses in Possilpark

The secret of a lasting bead is the preparation. The old sealant is removed to the last smear, after which the joint is degreased and any mould treated. Only once it’s dry does the new bead go on. If you have water getting behind the bath panel and smears of silicone across the tiles, we can help, on basins & vanity units, baths and shower trays & enclosures alike.

Stone-built tenements are part of every Scottish city, alongside houses and newer flats. In a tenement, most bathrooms sit above someone else’s ceiling, so failed sealant around a bath or shower can soon become a neighbour’s problem, and that is as true in Possilpark as anywhere in the city.

Every job is covered by our 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in Glasgow.

Why act early in Possilpark

A quick bead over the top of the old one might look better for a while, but it can’t stick to what’s underneath. Water creeps under it and mould follows, and the next reseal means two layers to cut out. In a Scottish city tenement, failed sealant affects more than one flat: water can reach the flat below, and gaps in shared walls or fire-stopping affect the whole stair.

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.

What bathroom resealing looks like in Possilpark

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. 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.

In the older streets around St Teresa's R C Church, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them. Letting a property close to Ashfield station? Then a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as St Aloysius' College, washroom and kitchen sealant there needs the same care as at home, and schools and businesses are part of our work as well as homes.

Landlord and commercial work in Possilpark

Landlords and agents in Possilpark can book us as well as householders. Sealant work between tenants is a simple way to keep a property in good order before the next move-in.

Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report. We can quote for more than one property at once.

DIY versus a professional finish

Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.

Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.

What affects the quote in Possilpark

Call for a quick quote. The main things that affect it are:

  • How many areas need sealing
  • How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
  • Working hours on commercial sites
  • The amount of work

Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs, along with when we can work on site. Call for a quick quote and we will go through it with you.

Aftercare tips

A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:

  • Never pick at the silicone with a blade
  • Keep an eye on the corners, where splits start
  • Dry the bead with a towel now and then
  • Stick to a soft cloth and a mild cleaner

Clean the silicone with care: warm soapy water and a soft cloth do the job. Avoid scouring pads and anything sharp, and a nicked bead lets mould in sooner.

There’s no need to wait for a full refurbishment. Sealant is a maintenance item, like the paint on a window frame, and replacing it when it fails protects the rest of the room.

Surface by surface

Kitchen worktops & upstands

Laminate worktops swell if water gets into the core. A sound joint along the back edge stops that, as long as the worktop itself is firmly fixed.

Baths

Acrylic baths flex the most, while steel and cast iron baths move less but still settle when full. Loading the bath with water before sealing allows for it.

What we do, step by step

All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so there’s nothing for you to buy. After a quick look at the joints together, we protect the area and start. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers. In a Scottish city, a lot of jobs are in tenement flats, up a common stair from a shared close. In Possilpark, it helps to know the floor, the door entry arrangements and the nearest parking.

  1. We look at every joint first and check for movement or leaks.
  2. The old silicone is cut out completely, along with the film it leaves on the tiles.
  3. Joints are degreased and any mould is treated.
  4. When the joint is dry, and a bath has been filled with water, the new silicone goes on.
  5. The bead is tooled smooth and you are told the cure time, generally around 24 hours.
