Bath resealing near Chorley

About our bath resealing in Chorley

A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. We regularly repair basins & vanity units, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people contact us are leaks at the edges and black mould in the sealant.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes about two hours for a bath, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Advice

Resealing in Chorley: why it matters

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Chorley

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Read our pricing.

What we cannot put right

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • A flexing bath
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

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

Materials we repair

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

What affects the price in Chorley

There is no charge for travel to Chorley. The price depends on:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material and finish
  • The size and number of damaged areas

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed price

Phone photos are fine. Just make sure we can see:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Chorley questions

What happens if you find more damage?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Damp is the cause. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

How long does resealing take?

Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.

What information do you need?

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

Do you come to Chorley?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Chorley for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

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

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Chorley

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

If you manage property in Chorley, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

Do you need bath resealing in Chorley?

Even good sealant eventually discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Gaps by the taps

Questions to ask before booking

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How soon you can use it again

How to compare quotes

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
