Bathroom resealing in Cunningsburgh
A fresh bead of silicone changes how a bathroom looks more than most people expect. Black, patchy sealant makes clean tiles look tired, and a clean white or clear joint fixes it quickly. Just as important, it closes the gaps water would otherwise get through. If you’re dealing with failed sealant on the screen profile and shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop, we can help.
For a place like Cunningsburgh, the job is the same as anywhere: everything old is cut out, the joints are cleaned and dried, and new sealant or grout goes in. The journey and access are simply planned in advance.
Every job is covered by our 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in the Shetland Islands.

What else we do in Cunningsburgh
Why it’s worth doing now in Cunningsburgh
A clean new bead makes a room look cared for, which helps when a home is being let or put on the market. A smeared, uneven DIY bead does the opposite. When the nearest tradesperson is a drive away, it’s tempting to leave a small leak, but water behind a failed seal does the most damage when nobody’s watching.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs, plus any working-time requirements on site. Call for a quick quote and we’ll explain what it covers.

When to call us in Cunningsburgh
Silicone does not last for ever. Daily water, heat and cleaning products slowly wear it down, so its life depends on how the room is used, cleaned and aired.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Leaks into the floor or ceiling below
- Splits where the tray meets the wall
- Two layers of silicone, both failing
- Cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone
For jobs in and around Cunningsburgh, choosing the right material for each joint is as important as a tidy finish.
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether they’re fully insured
- What happens if the job turns out different
- The length of the guarantee
- Who turns up on the day
The process
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The work itself takes half a day or less for one room, longer when the kitchen is included, including the tidy-up. In smaller Scottish places, parking is generally less of an issue than access and distance. Tell us how to find the property and how to reach the work.
- We look at every joint first and check for movement or leaks.
- Every trace of the old bead is removed, including the thin smear on the tiles.
- The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
- With the joint dry, and any bath loaded with water, a single bead of anti-fungal silicone is applied.
- The bead is tooled smooth and you’re told the cure time, usually around 24 hours.
How to prepare
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints

How to look after the new joints
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Don’t let bottles sit on the bead
- Stick to a soft cloth and a mild cleaner
- Dry the bead with a towel now and then
- Wipe up water along the back of the worktop
Mould needs damp, so keep the room aired. Use the fan, or open a window, while you bathe and for a while afterwards, so the silicone gets a chance to dry.
Small signs come before a leak: a corner lifting, a gap behind the bead, a dark line under the silicone or a damp patch on the ceiling below. If you spot one, it’s time to reseal.

Can you reseal around my kitchen sink and worktop?

Do you guarantee your resealing?
Yes. Every job carries our one-year guarantee, and we are fully insured.
What sealant do you use?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, picked for each joint. We’ll tell you what we are using and why.
When can I use the bath or shower again?
Generally after around 24 hours. You will get the exact cure time before we leave.
Do you have insurance?
Yes, we’re fully insured for every job we do.
Different surfaces, different methods
Sinks & splashbacks
Next to the sink, the sealant has to cope with constant water, including a food-safe sealant where that is needed. The joint is laid neatly so it’s easy to wipe.
Kitchen worktops & upstands
Laminate worktops swell if water gets into the core. A sound joint along the back edge stops that.
What bathroom resealing looks like in Cunningsburgh
Cunningsburgh is within about 1 mile of the coast. Near the coast, holiday lets and guest houses can see bathrooms used by one guest after another, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. Scottish Water supplies are generally soft, so limescale is less of a problem than in hard-water areas. Mould is another matter: a bathroom that stays damp still turns sealant and grout black.
In and around Cunningsburgh, as anywhere, good bathroom resealing starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.
