Prices and what affects them

There is no area surcharge for Burnside of Duntrune. The price reflects:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Access to the area
  • Doing more than one item at once

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Where you are, by postcode

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Bath resealing at your home in Burnside of Duntrune

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. Whether it’s water getting behind the bath or tray and stained silicone, we can usually put it right, on kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and basins & vanity units alike.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

Burnside of Duntrune questions

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Normally because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Is my repair covered?

What we do, step by step

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes around two hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple:

  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Open a window after bathing

Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Can I fix it myself?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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 then the old filler has to be removed first.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

Shower trays

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

What we cannot put right

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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