Bathroom resealing across AB38: what to expect
A fresh bead of silicone changes how a bathroom looks more than most people expect. Mouldy silicone makes even a new bathroom look neglected, and a clean white or clear joint fixes it quickly. It also seals the gaps that let water behind the bath. We work on shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & upstands, and the jobs we see most are damp behind the bath or under the tray and black mould in the silicone that won’t clean off.
All our tools and materials come with us in the van. After a quick look at the joints together, we protect the area and start. It normally takes a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen.
- We start by protecting the area and stripping out the old bead.
- 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 clear away and tell you when it can get wet, generally after around 24 hours.

Where we work in AB38
In AB38, bathroom resealing takes in flats, houses, rentals and businesses, from Charlestown of Aberlour, Rothes and Craigellachie to the quieter places in between. The method is the same everywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and dried, and a fresh finish laid.
Homes in Scotland come with their own details: sash and case windows, harled walls and, in the towns and cities, tenement flats. AB38 is part of the area we cover across Scotland.
Charlestown of Aberlour: If you live in an older home near Aberlour Parish Church, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. Around Charlestown of Aberlour, as everywhere, bathroom resealing is only as good as the preparation behind it.
For landlords and businesses
Letting agents and landlords in AB38 can book us as well as householders. Resealing between tenancies is a simple way to keep a property in good order before the next move-in.
If you manage several properties in or around AB38, jobs at different addresses can be quoted together. Just tell us the addresses and what each one needs.
How to look after the new joints
How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Let new sealant cure fully before it gets wet
- Keep the fan on for a while after bathing
- Squeegee the walls and tray after use
- Keep scourers and sharp tools away from the bead
Don’t stand bottles along the bead, because they trap water against the silicone. A quick squeegee after showering keeps water from sitting on the joint.
There’s no need to wait for a full refurbishment. Like paintwork, sealant needs renewing from time to time, and renewing it as soon as it fails protects everything around it.
Signs you need bathroom resealing
Silicone needs a clean, dry surface without any grease to stick to. Soap residue, oils and leftover silicone film all get in the way, so a rushed job can start to lift early.
The most common problems we see are:
- A messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal
- A reseal done over the top of the old bead
- Sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away
- Leaking joints on a shower screen

How the job changes by surface
Kitchen worktops & upstands
Worktop joints get wet and wiped every day. We seal them in a colour that suits the worktop.
Basins & vanity units
Basin joints are short and close to eye level: so we keep the line tidy and even, finished in a colour that suits the basin.
FAQs for AB38
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We’re approved under the ARBOMaster scheme, the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants.
Is it worth trying it myself?
It depends on the job. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
Do you cover AB38?
Yes. We are based in Crawley and work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Can tenants book the work?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure your landlord agrees.
Can I choose the colour of the sealant?
White and clear are the most common choices, but other colours can be used to suit tiles and worktops. Let us know your preference when you ask for a quote.
Can you get rid of the black mould in my sealant?
Yes. Mould inside the bead rarely cleans out for good, so we cut it out, treat the joint and reseal with anti-fungal silicone.
Will there be a smell?
Possibly a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.
