Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Bath resealing at your home in Dalmeny
All of the old sealant is cut out, treat any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. We work on kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and basins & vanity units, and people most frequently call us about water getting behind the bath or tray and stained silicone.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Common problems we fix in Dalmeny
Sealant does not last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
Common reasons people in Dalmeny contact us include:
- A messy previous reseal
- Gaps in the seal
- Leaks at the edges
- Stained silicone

Common questions in Dalmeny
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. You are under no obligation.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Dalmeny. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Do you come to Dalmeny?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Dalmeny for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What affects the price in Dalmeny
You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What the surface is made of
- How much damage there is
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size
Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your EH30 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
The process
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take around two hours, including clearing up.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Ask for a price

Landlords, agents and businesses in Dalmeny
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.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
When we’d advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Hidden water damage
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Basins & vanity units
- Wet rooms
Is resealing worth it?
Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
