Is resealing worth it?
Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Bath resealing at your home in Inverleith
We reseal baths, shower trays, basins and worktops. A typical reseal takes a couple of hours, then it needs to cure. We work on wet rooms, baths and basins & vanity units, and common reasons people get in touch are gaps in the seal and missing sealant behind the taps.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
The process
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a couple of hours. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let us know which floor the room is on

- Gaps by the taps

Your questions about bath resealing in Inverleith
How much does bath resealing cost in Inverleith?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do you cover Inverleith?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Inverleith. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
How long does resealing take?
Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
Different materials, different repairs
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
