Bath resealing at your home in Middlebie
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Common call-outs are for damp near the bath and old sealant that looks dirty, on kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and baths.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Common questions in Middlebie
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone will not bond to old.
Are there extra charges for Middlebie?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Damp is the cause. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Dumfries and Galloway, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
What we do, step by step

We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Access to the area
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How much damage there is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Details of any past repairs
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower, we can give you a fixed quote.
Landlord and trade work in Middlebie
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Middlebie use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Keep the joints dry
- Let steam out after showers
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Use the extractor fan
Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
Is resealing worth it?
Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
