Bath Resealing in Old Pentland
Fixed-price bath resealing in Old Pentland and the surrounding area, done in a single visit in most cases.
- Black mould in the sealant
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
How we handle bath resealing in Old Pentland
Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. Whether it’s old sealant that looks dirty and mould you can’t clean out, we can normally put it right, on wet rooms, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures alike.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What your bath or shower is made of matters
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
Landlord and trade work in Old Pentland
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Midlothian and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
What bath resealing costs
There is no charge for travel to Old Pentland. The price depends on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Getting a price from photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Details of any past repairs
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- Something in shot to show the size
- What it’s made of, if you know
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Signs you need bath resealing in Old Pentland
No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
People normally call us after spotting something like this:
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Black spots in the silicone

FAQs for Old Pentland
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Honest limits
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- A flexing bath
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.
