DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

Bath resealing at your home in Stratherrick

We reseal baths, shower trays, basins and worktops, with mould-resistant sanitary silicone. A typical reseal takes a couple of hours, plus curing time. Whether it’s gaps by the taps and silicone coming away from the tiles, we can typically put it right, on basins & vanity units, baths and wet rooms alike.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How to look after the repair

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

What we can’t put right

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Baths
  • Wet rooms

When to call us in Stratherrick

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Stained silicone
  • Mould you cannot clean out
  • Unsealed corners
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How changes to the job are handled

10 questions to ask before booking

Stratherrick questions

How long will it take?

A bath or shower generally takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

Do you cover Stratherrick?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Stratherrick and the rest of Highland. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Stratherrick?

Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your IV2 postcode.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

How long before I can shower?

You’ll get the curing time from us.

Prices and what affects them

You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Access to the area
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many areas need work
  • The colour and finish to match

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

How to get a fixed price

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • Any details about the material
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Work for landlords and builders

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.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Why reseal now?

Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

How it works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to around two hours.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
