Bath Resealing in Innerleithen
Bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone in Innerleithen, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- A messy previous reseal
- Missing sealant behind the taps
Bath resealing in Innerleithen without replacing anything
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. If you are dealing with a messy previous reseal and black mould in the sealant, we can normally put it right.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Honest limits
We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

Common questions in Innerleithen
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What happens after I send pictures?
We come back with a fixed price, normally with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across the Scottish Borders.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a couple of hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let us know about parking or access
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Other services in Innerleithen
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, typically around 24 hours.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
Is resealing worth it?
Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Work for landlords and builders
For anyone letting property in or around Innerleithen, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
