Bath resealing in Cockenzie and Port Seton, done in place
Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and a new seal stops it. Our technicians work on shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and baths, and common reasons people contact us are damp near the bath and silicone smeared on tiles.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Details of any past repairs
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- What it’s made of, if you know

- Hollow or loose tiles
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Questions from Cockenzie and Port Seton
How long does resealing take?
Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
What does bath resealing cost?
Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.
How long does silicone take to cure?
You’ll get the curing time from us, usually around a day.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Do you need bath resealing in Cockenzie and Port Seton?
A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: damp hangs around, and mould takes hold.

- Missing sealant behind the taps

How to look after the repair
It’s all simple stuff:
- Air the room after use
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Give the seal a regular clean
Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
How it works
Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes about two hours for a bath for most jobs. We leave the room clean.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. 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.
