About our bath resealing in Tweedbank
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Typical jobs include silicone coming away from the tiles and gaps by the taps, on basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and baths.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Tweedbank and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Landlord and trade work in Tweedbank
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
When a repair is not the answer
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- A flexing bath
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Why it’s worth resealing in Tweedbank
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is and protects the walls and floor. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Dry the seal after bathing
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, usually around 24 hours.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
