Bath resealing at your home in South Gyle
We cut out all of the old sealant, deal with any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. Whether it’s gaps by the taps and discoloured, yellow sealant, we can help.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

Questions from South Gyle
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Normally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Do you cover South Gyle?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to South Gyle. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can new silicone go over old?
No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Different materials, different repairs
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take about two hours for a bath. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

How we price bath resealing

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures

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. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
