Bath resealing in Burgh Muir without replacing anything
A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they keep water out. Typical jobs include black mould in the sealant and silicone smeared on tiles, in baths, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures.

What we do, step by step
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a couple of hours. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Other services in Burgh Muir
Is resealing worth it?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

When we would advise against a repair
We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
Materials we repair
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
- Shower trays & enclosures
Do you need bath resealing in Burgh Muir?
A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: damp hangs around, and mould grows faster.
Customers usually contact us about:
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Black mould in the sealant
- Leaks at the edges
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
What your quote should include
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- What happens if they find more damage
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- How the room is protected while they work
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

- Ventilate the bathroom well

- Keep bottles off the joints
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
