Bath Resealing in Scottish Borders
Bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone at your home in Scottish Borders, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Sealant that is split or lifting
- Damp near the bath
- Mould you can’t clean out
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Bath resealing at your home in Scottish Borders
Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Fresh joints make the entire room look cleaner, and they protect the walls and floor. Whether it’s old sealant that looks dirty and damp near the bath, we can typically put it right, on shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and baths alike.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

When a repair is not the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- A flexing bath

What your bath or shower is made of matters
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
What affects the price in Scottish Borders
We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The type of damage
Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
Signs you need bath resealing in Scottish Borders
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning can’t get it all out.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Stained silicone
- Leaks at the edges
- Gaps by the taps
- Sealant that is split or lifting
What to look for in a quote
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Who turns up on the day
- What prep work is covered
How to look after the repair
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Use the extractor fan
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

FAQs for Scottish Borders
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Do you cover Scottish Borders?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Scottish Borders from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
How long does resealing take?
A bath or shower generally takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
How it works
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take around two hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Getting a price
Send us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Scottish Borders, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
