What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Bath resealing in Innerwick, done in place

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. If you are dealing with an untidy old seal and damp near the bath, we can help, on baths, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units alike.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in East Lothian.

How we price bath resealing

Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Access to the area
  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Any details about the material

For a price in Innerwick, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for about two hours for a bath from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

How to get a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper 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, and the work is guaranteed.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Innerwick

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Give the seal a regular clean

Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use.

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
