Why Proper Resealing Matters in Edinburgh Flats

In Edinburgh's high-density tenements and flats, a small gap in your shower sealant can quickly leak through the floorboards and damage the plaster ceiling of your downstairs neighbour.

Simply smearing fresh silicone over old, wet sealant never works—it quickly peels off and traps Mold underneath. We strip the old sealant back to the bare surface, treat the joint with anti-fungal cleaner, and apply a fresh, waterproof bead for a long-lasting, watertight seal.
