Remedial sealant in Drumry, done properly
Removing failed sealant is the hardest part of the job. We cut out every layer, clear the residue and degrease the surfaces, without scratching tiles, trays or frames. New sealant only bonds to a clean, dry joint. If you are dealing with smears and lumps from a botched reseal and sealant applied over old sealant that has lifted, we can put it right, on shrunken worktop sealant, leaking tray & enclosure joints and botched or over-sealed joints alike.
Across smaller places in Scotland, homes range from stone and harled cottages to newer houses. Where a building moves, cracked grout and split sealant are generally the first signs.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, whatever its size.

Aftercare tips
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Look for stains below bathrooms now and then
- Do not point over movement joints
- Do not wait for a small gap to become a leak
- Check trays and worktops don’t move
Leave the new joint to cure fully before it gets wet or moves: generally around 24 hours, or as long as we advise.
Movement joints that have split let water into the structure, and the longer it’s left, the more the joint edges break down. A joint with sound edges is far easier to reseal.
Bathrooms and kitchens in Drumry
In Scotland, private landlords have to meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping fixtures and fittings in reasonable repair. Failed sealant around a bath or shower is worth sorting between tenancies. 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.
Schools such as Saint Andrew's High School are buildings too, and we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. Rented homes near Drumry station change hands often, and failed or mouldy sealant is worth putting right between tenancies, before it turns into a leak.

DIY versus a professional finish
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.

How long will it take to strip and reseal the joint?
A little longer than a standard reseal. Most jobs take a few hours.
My shower still leaks after a reseal. Can you sort it?
Yes. There’s normally a reason: sealant over sealant, movement or another leak, and we deal with the cause first.
Can I do it myself?
It depends on the job. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs.
Can you remove old sealant without damaging the bath?
Yes. Careful removal is most of a remedial job, particularly on softer surfaces like acrylic.
Is it messy?
No. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.

Surface by surface
Worktops & kitchens
Shrunken worktop sealant leaves a gap that lets water into the back edge. It’s cut out, degreased and resealed.
Mouldy bath & shower sealant
Mould that has grown into silicone does not clean out for good. The sealant is cut out completely, the joint treated with a mould remover and dried before anti-fungal sanitary silicone goes in.
What happens if it’s left?
DIY removal often leaves scratches and a film of residue, and the residue left behind stops the next bead bonding. Careful removal is most of a remedial job. In a place like Drumry, small leaks are easy to put off, but water through a failed joint keeps working away until it’s fixed.
Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.
