Our bath resealing service in West Lothian
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Common call-outs are for unsealed corners and silicone coming away from the tiles, on wet rooms, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures.
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes a couple of hours in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.
Cost
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
What you get with us
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
How to get a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
When a repair is not the answer
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Movement in the bath or tray
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
Why repair rather than replace?
Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely.
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What aftercare is recommended
- What preparation is included
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
What bath resealing costs
There’s no area surcharge for West Lothian. The price reflects:
- The type of damage
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send pictures for a quote
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The material, if you know it
- Natural light rather than flash
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
Most clients in West Lothian get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Your questions about bath resealing in West Lothian

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Do you work in West Lothian?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to West Lothian. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
