FAQs for Bridge End
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Do you cover the whole of Edinburgh?
All of Edinburgh, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
Bath resealing in Bridge End without replacing anything
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. If you are dealing with stained silicone and black spots in the silicone, we can help, whatever the material.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee.

Other services in Bridge End
Do you need bath resealing in Bridge End?
No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Gaps in the seal
- Leaks at the edges
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Black mould in the sealant
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How to look after the finish
- How soon you can use it again
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Use the extractor fan
Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bridge End as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Prices and what affects them
You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Bridge End. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
You can take the photos on your phone. Ensure they show:
- The material, if you know it
- Natural light rather than flash
- Something in shot to show the size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Upload a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Bridge End, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
