DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

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 normally cheaper.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

When to call us in Aston Tirrold

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Unsealed corners
  • Damp near the bath

What to look for in a quote

  • Who turns up on the day

Our hiring checklist

Resealing in Aston Tirrold: why it matters

Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Aston Tirrold

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • We leave the room as we found it

See our pricing.

What a repair cannot fix

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

  • A flexing bath
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we work on in Aston Tirrold

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

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting

Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

Landlord and trade work in Aston Tirrold

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Oxfordshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a couple of hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We ensure the joint is completely dry.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Open a window if you can

Your questions about bath resealing in Aston Tirrold

What happens next?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working.

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Oxfordshire.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
