How it works
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes around two hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

What else we do in Cunningsburgh
Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Open a window after bathing
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Wipe the joints dry after use
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, typically around 24 hours.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Work for landlords and builders
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.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Prices and what affects them
Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What kind of damage it is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many items we do on one visit
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Details of any past repairs
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- Where you are, by postcode
Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Cunningsburgh, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Cunningsburgh questions
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.
How much does bath resealing cost in Cunningsburgh?
Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across the Shetland Islands.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
How long does silicone take to cure?
Normally about a day later. We will tell you the exact time.
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
