About our bath resealing in Broomhill

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. Whether it’s a messy previous reseal and black spots in the silicone, we can help.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

Common questions in Broomhill

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Do you cover Broomhill?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Broomhill and the rest of South Gloucestershire. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

How long does a reseal take?

Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

Usually after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.

How we price bath resealing

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How much damage there is
  • How many items we do on one visit

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The material, if you know it

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

The process

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It generally takes a couple of hours, and you’re 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. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Getting a price

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower, we can price the job without visiting.

Advice

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Broomhill, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.

Honest limits

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Hidden water damage

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

Why reseal now?

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. 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.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Broomhill

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers

Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
