Prices and what affects them
Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- How many areas need work
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Pencaitland. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any details about the material
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
How we handle bath resealing in Pencaitland
Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Fresh joints make the whole room look cleaner, and they keep water out. Typical jobs include black spots in the silicone and water getting behind the bath or tray, in shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Common questions in Pencaitland
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Normally because the bath or tray moves. We seal baths full of water.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Do you cover the whole of East Lothian?
We work UK-wide, so Pencaitland is covered. Prices don’t change with location.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Pencaitland?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
What we’re called out for in Pencaitland
No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Gaps in the seal
- Leaks at the edges
- Unsealed corners
- A messy previous reseal
Before booking anyone
- What protection goes down before work starts
- How soon you can use it again
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Who will actually do the work
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

What else we do in Pencaitland
Landlords, agents and businesses in Pencaitland
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
What we do, step by step
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes about two hours for a bath, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let us know about parking or access
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice
Resealing in Pencaitland: why it matters
Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
