Trusted bath resealing in Crossgates

The process

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a couple of hours, tidy-up included.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Clear the area around the damage

About our bath resealing in Crossgates

A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. Whether it’s silicone smeared on tiles and discoloured, yellow sealant, we can help, whatever the material.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Resealing in Crossgates: why it matters

Resealing costs very little and protects the walls and floor. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Crossgates

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • One price list for the entire UK

When to call us in Crossgates

Sealant doesn’t last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

People normally call us after spotting something like this:

  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Old sealant that looks dirty

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Who turns up on the day
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

Our hiring checklist

Honest limits

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

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Your questions about bath resealing in Crossgates

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

How long does resealing take?

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

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

How long does silicone take to cure?

We will give you the curing time, usually around a day.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

Sinks and worktops

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

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Air the room after use
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in

Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.

Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
