Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Beechmount, Edinburgh
Bath resealing in Beechmount without the cost of replacing. Send us pictures for a fixed price, then book a visit.
- A messy previous reseal
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Stained silicone
Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Air the room after use
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Dry the seal after bathing
Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
Bath resealing at your home in Beechmount
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Common call-outs are for damp near the bath and silicone coming away from the tiles, in wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and baths.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
What bath resealing costs
You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed quote
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Why it’s worth resealing in Beechmount
Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

- A fixed quote before you book
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
