- Black mould in the sealant
How we handle bath resealing in North Leith
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. We work on basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and baths, and the jobs we see most are unsealed corners and black spots in the silicone.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

FAQs for North Leith
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Something is moving. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
How much does bath resealing cost in North Leith?
We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your EH6 postcode.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
All the old sealant comes out. New silicone won’t bond to old.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What we do, step by step
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take about two hours for a bath, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let us know about parking or access
Ask for a price

Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Let steam out after showers
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Ventilate the bathroom well
Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

When a repair is not the answer
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- A flexing bath
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

How we price bath resealing
We do not charge extra for travel to North Leith. The price comes down to:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
How to get a fixed quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Natural light rather than flash
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in North Leith as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
