Bath resealing in Dunnet

Dunnet: your questions answered

What does bath resealing cost?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, and that includes Dunnet. Prices do not change with location.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Normally because the bath or tray moves. We seal baths full of water.

How long does a reseal take?

Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We come back with a fixed price. There is no obligation to book.

About our bath resealing in Dunnet

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 a new seal stops it. We work on baths, wet rooms and basins & vanity units, and the jobs we see most are damp near the bath and a messy previous reseal.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Why reseal now?

Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Why us?

How we price bath resealing

There is no area surcharge for Dunnet. What changes the price is:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The type of damage
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Upload pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Dunnet, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Dunnet and the surrounding area

Dunnet is about 7 miles east of Thurso, in Highland. From the centre of Dunnet to the outlying streets, we offer exactly the same service: a fixed price, a tidy visit and a guarantee. We cover 253 places across Highland, from the larger towns to small villages.

All of KW14 is within our area. We also travel to Brough (2 miles north), Castletown (3 miles south-west), Scarfskerry (3 miles north-east), Rattar (3 miles north-east) and Murkle (4 miles south-west). Some remote addresses need extra planning, so it’s best to call first.

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Dunnet use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

How the visit works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take about two hours for a bath, including clearing up.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Related advice

Do you need bath resealing in Dunnet?

Poor ventilation speeds things up: damp hangs around, and mould grows faster.

Look out for these signs:

  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Silicone smeared on tiles

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Keep the joints dry
  • Air the room after use
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in

Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
