How we handle bath resealing in Linlithgow
A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. Whether it’s missing sealant behind the taps and sealant that’s split or lifting, we can generally put it right.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in West Lothian.

When a repair isn’t the answer
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- A flexing bath
- Hidden water damage
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Wet rooms
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Common problems we fix in Linlithgow
A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: damp hangs around, and mould grows faster.
Customers usually contact us about:
- Gaps by the taps
- An untidy old seal
- Leaks at the edges
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How your room will be protected
- What prep work is covered
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
What bath resealing costs
We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- How many areas need work
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material and finish
Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
How to get a fixed price
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- Any details about the material
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
Upload a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Linlithgow, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Repairs by material
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
How it works
Your technician turns up when we said we would, 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 a couple of hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
Advice
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Open a window after bathing
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Keep the joints dry
Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Linlithgow: your questions answered
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
How long before I can shower?
Normally after around 24 hours. We’ll tell you the exact time.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across West Lothian.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Do you work in Linlithgow?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Linlithgow and the rest of West Lothian. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is resealing worth it?
Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- No need to remove anything
