About our bath resealing in Winchburgh

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. If you are dealing with missing sealant behind the taps and discoloured, yellow sealant, we can typically put it right, on kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and shower trays & enclosures alike.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Why it’s worth resealing in Winchburgh

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. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Winchburgh. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

  • No need to remove anything

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow around two hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. We make sure the joint is completely dry.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Ask for a price

Send us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your EH52 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

When we would advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Hidden water damage
  • A flexing bath
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

What we work on

  • Wet rooms
  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Baths
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks

Common questions in Winchburgh

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Do you come to Winchburgh?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Winchburgh for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

How long does silicone take to cure?

You’ll get the curing time from us.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

How long will it take?

Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

What bath resealing costs

There’s no charge for travel to Winchburgh. The price comes down to:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Access to the area
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

For a price in Winchburgh, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in

Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
