How we handle bath resealing in Harray
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. We regularly repair wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths, and common reasons people contact us are unsealed corners and black mould in the sealant.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Harray and nearby
Harray is about 9 miles north-west of Kirkwall, in the Orkney Islands. Jobs in Harray are booked in like any other job: a fixed quote from your photos, then a visit to do the work. Our repair technicians cover all 51 towns and villages across the Orkney Islands, from the larger towns to small villages.
Our visits in KW17 work the same way as everywhere else we cover. We also travel to Bimbister (1 mile south), Russland (1 mile west), Grimeston (2 miles south), Hourston (2 miles north-west) and Wasbister (3 miles south-west). For island and remote addresses, ring us first and we’ll plan the trip.

Prices and what affects them
You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
- The material
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. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- Something in shot to show the size
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
How the visit works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a couple of hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- We ensure the joint is completely dry.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

What else we do in Harray
Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple:
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Let steam out after showers
- Store bottles on a shelf
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
When a repair is not the answer
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Harray
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks

Why reseal now?
Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book.
Why book with us
- Work done at your home or business
- Everything repaired in place
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Every repair guaranteed for a year

Common questions in Harray
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK. Prices don’t change with location.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Something is moving. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do you come to Harray?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Harray from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
