Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
About our bath resealing in Pierowall
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. We are frequently asked to fix black spots in the silicone and an untidy old seal, across shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and baths.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

How it works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a couple of hours, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- 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.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

FAQs for Pierowall
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Why it’s worth resealing in Pierowall
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 depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

What bath resealing costs
You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- The type of damage
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
- Whether we combine several jobs
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send pictures for a quote
You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Pierowall
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in the Orkney Islands and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
