When we’d advise against a repair

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Hidden water damage
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

We cut out all of the old sealant, deal with any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. Whether it’s leaks at the edges and sealant that’s split or lifting, we can help, on baths, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures alike.

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

Why it’s worth resealing in Burtoft

Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Burtoft

  • No extra charge for your area
  • We leave the room as we found it

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, and the work is guaranteed.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

How we price bath resealing

We charge the same across the UK, including Burtoft. What changes the price is:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What kind of damage it is

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower
  • The material, if you know it

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

What happens on the day

You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take about two hours for a bath, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Clear the area around the damage

Related advice

Landlords, agents and businesses in Burtoft

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.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing.

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.

Burtoft: your questions answered

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

How long will it take?

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

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK. Prices don’t change with location.

Do you come to Burtoft?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Burtoft. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
