Bath resealing in Saughtonhall, done in place
A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they keep water out. If you’re dealing with sealant that’s split or lifting and an untidy old seal, we can normally put it right, on kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms alike.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Saughtonhall and across Edinburgh.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
FAQs for Saughtonhall
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Do you cover the entire of Edinburgh?
The whole UK, including all of Edinburgh. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.
How long does silicone take to cure?
You’ll get the curing time from us, normally around a day.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
How long does resealing take?
Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.
How much does bath resealing cost in Saughtonhall?
We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.
How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Dry the seal after bathing
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, typically around 24 hours.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
The process
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which usually takes about two hours for a bath. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Advice
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
What a repair cannot fix
A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Baths
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
Signs you need bath resealing in Saughtonhall
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.
Look out for these signs:
- Unsealed corners
- Black spots in the silicone
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How changes to the job are handled
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
Is resealing worth it?
A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
