Bath resealing at your home in Ollaberry
We cut out all of the old sealant, deal with any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. We regularly repair basins & vanity units, baths and shower trays & enclosures, and the jobs we see most are damp near the bath and missing sealant behind the taps.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in the Shetland Islands.

FAQs for Ollaberry
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
All the old sealant comes out. New silicone won’t bond to old.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Typically poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
How long does silicone take to cure?
Normally after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
How long will it take?
Normally a couple of hours, plus curing time.
What we cannot put right
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Hidden water damage
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Baths
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
Why reseal now?
Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What your bath or shower is made of matters
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Signs you need bath resealing in Ollaberry
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Black mould in the sealant
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- An untidy old seal
- Sealant that is split or lifting
What your quote should include
- How your room will be protected
- How to care for the finish
- How changes to the job are handled
- Who turns up on the day
What affects the price in Ollaberry
We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
How to get a fixed quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
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.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Ollaberry
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
How the visit works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take around two hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We ensure the joint is completely dry.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Get a quote
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
