Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner

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

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.

Why it’s worth resealing in Covent Garden

Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Covent Garden. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Covent Garden

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • One visit for most repairs
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Take a look at our pricing.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Covent Garden as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

The process

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It normally takes a couple of hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Clear the area around the damage

Advice

Your questions about bath resealing in Covent Garden

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do you cover the whole of Greater London?

We cover the entire UK, including Covent Garden and the rest of Greater London. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

How long will it take?

A bath or shower usually takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.

What do you need from me?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

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.

Are there extra charges for Covent Garden?

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

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

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

What bath resealing costs

You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The type of damage
  • The material and finish
  • Doing more than one item at once

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Send photos for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower, we can price the job.

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Movement in the bath or tray

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Common problems we fix in Covent Garden

In time, even good sealant discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • An untidy old seal
  • Black spots in the silicone

Before you book anyone

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How soon you can use it again
