About our bath resealing in Burnmouth
A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. We’re often asked to fix unsealed corners and discoloured, yellow sealant, across shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Burnmouth questions
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.
Can new silicone go over old?
Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
How much does bath resealing cost in Burnmouth?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
Normally after around 24 hours. We’ll tell you the exact time.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Burnmouth
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Signs you need bath resealing in Burnmouth
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning can’t get it all out.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Black mould in the sealant
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- A messy previous reseal
What your quote should include
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether the price covers travel
- How changes to the job are handled
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Open a window after bathing
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
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.
Why reseal now?
Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

What else we do in Burnmouth
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, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We make sure the joint is completely dry.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Clear the area around the damage
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

- A flexing bath
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
