Bath resealing at your home in Gayfield
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Our repair technicians work on kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms, and people most frequently call us about damp near the bath and mould you can’t clean out.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

How it works
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 job takes a couple of hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Why it’s worth resealing in Gayfield
Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Why book with us
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- One price list for the entire UK
- One visit for most repairs
- No need to remove anything
Take a look at our prices page.
What a repair can’t fix
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Hidden water damage
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Landlord and trade work in Gayfield
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Gayfield questions
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Do you cover the entire of Edinburgh?
All of Edinburgh, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
What else we do in Gayfield
Repairs by material
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Can I fix it myself?
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, then guarantee it for a year.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
