Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Westfield, Edinburgh
Bath resealing across Westfield and nearby, typically in one visit.
- Unsealed corners
- A messy previous reseal
- Black spots in the silicone
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
About our bath resealing in Westfield
We reseal baths, shower trays, basins and worktops using mould-resistant silicone. Most jobs take a couple of hours. We work on baths, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people contact us are black mould in the sealant and gaps in the seal.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Westfield, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Let steam out after showers
- Use the extractor fan
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
Prices and what affects them
Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How hard the colour is to match
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- The material, if you know it
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Natural light rather than flash
If you are in Westfield and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

What a repair can’t fix
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Resealing in Westfield: why it matters
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Why book with us
- Same prices wherever you are
- Everything repaired in place
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Straight answers about what a repair can do

Different materials, different repairs
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

What else we do in Westfield
Westfield: your questions answered
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
How long does a reseal take?
Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
