Bathroom resealing for homes and businesses in Voe
Sealant is the soft line between a bath, shower or worktop and the wall. Once it cracks or goes mouldy, water starts to find its way through. Our team cut the old bead out completely and lay a new one in anti-fungal sanitary silicone. We work on basins & vanity units, sinks & splashbacks and wet rooms, and people most often call us about water getting behind the kitchen upstand and damp behind the bath or under the tray.
Bathrooms in smaller places like Voe work just as hard as those in the cities. Generally soft Scottish water means less limescale, but steam still lets mould into sealant and grout.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.

What happens on the day
A visit follows a simple pattern: we check the joints, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and tidy away. It usually takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom. Around Voe, distance and access matter more than parking. Let us know how to find you and how to reach the joints, and the visit is planned around that.
- 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.
- We tool the bead to a neat finish and give you the cure time, normally around 24 hours.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

Can I do it myself?
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
Aftercare tips
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Open a window or run the fan so the room dries
- Never pick at the silicone with a blade
- Dry the bead with a towel now and then
- Look for lifting corners and small gaps now and then
Good ventilation does more than any cleaner. Run the extractor fan during and after a shower, so the bead dries out between uses.
Watch for the early signs: a corner lifting, a gap behind the bead, a dark line under the silicone or a damp patch on the ceiling below. Any of these means the joint needs attention.
Landlord and commercial work in Voe
For anyone letting property in or around Voe, jobs at different addresses can go on one quote. Just tell us the addresses and what each one needs.
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy. Several properties can go on one quote.
Why it’s worth doing now in Voe
Fresh sealant smartens a bathroom or kitchen with very little disruption, which matters if you are letting a property or selling it. A smeared, uneven DIY bead does the opposite, and it’s harder to put right later. In a place like Voe, small leaks are easy to put off, but water behind a failed seal does the most damage when nobody’s watching.
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part, and we will explain the quote if you ask.

Different surfaces, different methods
Baths
The long joint down the side of a bath is where most leaks start, particularly where there’s a shower over the bath. We finish it with a single, even bead of anti-fungal silicone.
Kitchen worktops & upstands
Water behind a laminate worktop can make the edge swell. A continuous bead along the back keeps water out, as long as the worktop itself is firmly fixed.
Bathrooms and kitchens in Voe
Voe 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, which wears sealant and grout out faster than in a quiet home. Private landlords in Scotland must be registered and meet the Repairing Standard, which covers keeping fixtures and fittings in a reasonable state of repair. Failed sealant around a bath or shower is worth sorting between tenancies.
Around Voe, as everywhere, bathroom resealing is only as good as the preparation behind it. In the older streets around Voe Kirk, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.
