Burntisland: your questions answered

Can new silicone go over old?

No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

Do you cover the whole of Fife?

Across the UK, and that includes Burntisland. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Can you price it without visiting?

Normally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Burntisland

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

If you manage property in Burntisland, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

Repairs by material

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes about two hours for a bath. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Getting a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Air the room after use
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Give the seal a regular clean

Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.

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

Why reseal now?

Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Prices and what affects them

There’s no area surcharge for Burntisland. The price reflects:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material and finish
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower

To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.

What we cannot put right

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

  • Basins & vanity units
