Prices and what affects them

There’s no charge for travel to Kirkcaldy. The price comes down to:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many items we do on one visit

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

How to get a fixed quote

Phone photos are fine. Ensure they show:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Bath resealing in Kirkcaldy without replacing anything

Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. Whether it’s silicone coming away from the tiles and missing sealant behind the taps, we can help, on kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and wet rooms alike.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Repairs by material

Shower trays

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

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

What we’re called out for in Kirkcaldy

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning cannot get it all out.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • A messy previous reseal
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Damp near the bath
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting

What to look for in a quote

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Kirkcaldy questions

Are there extra charges for Kirkcaldy?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

Do you cover the whole of Fife?

We cover the whole UK, including Kirkcaldy and the rest of Fife. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.

When we’d advise against a repair

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best:

  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Air the room after use
  • Store bottles on a shelf

Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.

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

How it works

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a couple of hours. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Advice

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
