DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

How it works

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a couple of hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Open a window if you can

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Do you need bath resealing in Tarland?

No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Gaps in the seal
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Gaps by the taps

Before booking anyone

  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Tarland questions

How long will it take?

Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

How long does silicone take to cure?

Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

What affects the price in Tarland

Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material and finish

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a fixed quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Something in shot to show the size

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in

Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

What we can’t put right

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
