Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Air the room after use
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Keep the joints dry
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
When we would advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- A flexing bath
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Wet rooms
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks

What affects the price in Bonnyrigg
Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- The material
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Send pictures for a quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Any details about the material
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. Quotes are free and no obligation.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Is resealing worth it?
Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
What you get with us
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Nothing taken out or refitted

Signs you need bath resealing in Bonnyrigg
Joints split if the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.

- Unsealed corners
Questions to ask before booking
- How changes to the job are handled
- If travel is included in the price
- What aftercare is recommended
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
The process
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes about two hours for a bath, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Related advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
