What else we do in Srath Carran
When to call us in Srath Carran
Black mould is behind a lot of resealing. Steamy rooms that do not dry out give mould all the damp it needs, and once it has grown into the bead, cleaning rarely gets it out.
People generally contact us after spotting something like this:
- Water escaping at the shower enclosure
- Splits where the tray meets the wall
- Two layers of silicone, both failing
- Cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone
If you let a flat or house near Strathcarron station, a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for.
What to look for in a quote

- Is the old sealant removed completely?

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
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. Everything old must be removed first.
What happens if it’s left?
Fresh sealant smartens a bathroom or kitchen with very little disruption, which helps when a home is being let or put on the market. Lumpy sealant with smears on the tiles has the opposite effect. In an older home around Srath Carran, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is a far bigger job than the sealant.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs. Call for a quick quote and we’ll go through it with you.

What the job involves on each surface
Baths
Acrylic baths give a little under load, while steel and cast iron baths move less but still settle when full. Filling the bath first allows for that movement.
Basins & vanity units
Basins take less water than showers, but the joint behind them is splashed every day. Corners behind basins are where mould tends to start, so it’s cut out and renewed just like a bath joint.
Bathroom resealing around Srath Carran
Srath Carran is close to the coast. Near the coast, holiday lets and guest houses can see bathrooms used by one guest after another, which wears sealant and grout out faster than in a quiet home. Scotland’s water is generally soft, so sealant and grout see less limescale than in much of England. But mould still grows into sealant and grout in a room that does not dry out.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Kirkton in Meikle Strath School, 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.

How the visit works
Good joint work is mostly preparation, so that is where we spend the time. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. All told, the work takes a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers. Outside jobs in Srath Carran 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 cover the area around the joints we’re working on.
- We cut away the old sealant and clean off what’s left.
- We treat any mould and let the joint dry properly.
- Any bath is filled with water, then we lay a bead of anti-fungal silicone in white, clear or a matching colour.
- We finish the joint, clear up and tell you how long to leave it before it gets wet.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
