About Bitesize Sealant 101

Gain Confidence with a Sealant Gun

Don't we all love this job? It isn't even very easy to get someone to come and do the job for you.

This Bitesize DIY Course introduces you to the art of sealing a shower or bath effectively. By the end of it we're not expecting you to love the job any more than you did when you booked the course. However, you will leave the course knowing how to do the job properly, and effectively.

Has your Silicon started to turn black?

Are there stains on ceiling below your shower?

Have you had to stop using the shower because it leaks?

Did you do the job a few months ago, and already it needs doing again?

Have you struggled to find a Tradesperson to come and do this job?

If the answer to one or more of those is "yes", then maybe this short "Bitesize DIY" Course could be just what you need.
