Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in East Ayrshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

Darvel questions
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Do you cover Darvel?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Darvel. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across East Ayrshire.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Typically because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.
Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Keep bottles off the joints
Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
When to call us in Darvel
Poor ventilation speeds things up: damp hangs around, and mould grows faster.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Black spots in the silicone
- Gaps in the seal
Before you book anyone
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What happens if they find more damage
- What prep work is covered
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
What affects the price in Darvel
Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The material, if you know it
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Repairs by material
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
