About our bath resealing in Greenbank
A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. Whether it’s water getting behind the bath or tray and silicone smeared on tiles, we can normally put it right.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Common questions in Greenbank
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
How long does silicone take to cure?
You’ll get the curing time from us.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
How much does bath resealing cost in Greenbank?
Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do you cover the entire of Edinburgh?
All of Edinburgh, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
What we do, step by step
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take about two hours for a bath, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Open a window if you can

Resealing in Greenbank: why it matters
Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
What you get with us
- Fixed prices from your photos
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
Take a look at our pricing.
How we price bath resealing
There is no area surcharge for Greenbank. What changes the price is:
- The colour and finish to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Access to the area
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- The material, if you know it
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Most customers in Greenbank get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
What we can’t put right
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Hidden water damage
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Movement in the bath or tray
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Baths
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Air the room after use
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Keep the joints dry
- Give the seal a regular clean
Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
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.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Greenbank
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Greenbank as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
