The process

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take around two hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Advice

How to care for the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Keep the joints dry
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal

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

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Cherry Willingham: your questions answered

How long does silicone take to cure?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.

What information do you need?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the entire UK, including Cherry Willingham and the rest of Lincolnshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.

How long will it take?

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

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

When we would advise against a repair

We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Hidden water damage
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Resealing in Cherry Willingham: why it matters

Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Cherry Willingham

  • Leaks at the edges
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Unsealed corners

What to look for in a quote

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • What preparation is included
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How long it needs to cure

Prices and what affects them

Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Unusual colours or finishes

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from photos

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
