Bath Resealing for St Abbs homes
We travel to St Abbs for bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Mould you can’t clean out
- A messy previous reseal
- Unsealed corners
Bath resealing at your home in St Abbs
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. If you’re dealing with mould you can’t clean out and gaps in the seal, we can help, on shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and baths alike.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How we price bath resealing
We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How many items we do on one visit
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any details about the material
- A picture taken from further back
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.
What we’re called out for in St Abbs
Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed while the bath was empty.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
- Mould you can’t clean out
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- A messy previous reseal
Questions to ask before booking
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- What prep work is covered
- Aftercare advice
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Air the room after use
- Keep the joints dry
- Give the seal a regular clean
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

Resealing in St Abbs: why it matters
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is, and it protects everything around the bath. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
What you get with us
- One visit for most repairs
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
Questions from St Abbs
What does bath resealing cost?
Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
How long does resealing take?
Typically a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.
Do you cover the entire of the Scottish Borders?
We cover the whole UK, including St Abbs and the rest of the Scottish Borders. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can new silicone go over old?
Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
