Bath resealing in Brinian without replacing anything
All of the old sealant is cut out, treat any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. If you are dealing with old sealant that looks dirty and black spots in the silicone, we can help, on wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures alike.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Your questions about bath resealing in Brinian
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across the Orkney Islands.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
What areas do you cover?
The entire UK, including all of the Orkney Islands. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
What we are called out for in Brinian
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.
The things customers typically mention when they call are:
- Stained silicone
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Missing sealant behind the taps
Before you book anyone
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What happens if they find more damage
For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Resealing in Brinian: why it matters
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why us?
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Most jobs done in one visit

Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
Different materials, different repairs
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, 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 a repair isn’t the answer
We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Hidden water damage
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
