Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Bruntsfield, Edinburgh
Our technicians come to Bruntsfield for bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- An untidy old seal
- Unsealed corners
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Ventilate the bathroom well
Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.
Bath resealing at your home in Bruntsfield
Baths, trays, basins and kitchen worktops all get resealed using mould-resistant silicone. Most jobs take a couple of hours, then it needs to cure. Whether it’s gaps in the seal and silicone smeared on tiles, we can typically put it right, on basins & vanity units, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks alike.
Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Common questions in Bruntsfield
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the whole UK, including Bruntsfield and the rest of Edinburgh. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.
Do you come to Bruntsfield?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Bruntsfield for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Why it’s worth resealing in Bruntsfield
Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
What you get with us
- A fixed quote before booking
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- No need to remove anything
- Work done at your home or business

The process
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes around two hours, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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, it’s worth having it done 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, and the work is guaranteed.
