Bath resealing in Dudley Hill, done in place
All of the old sealant is cut out, treat any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. Whether it’s mould you can’t clean out and sealant that’s split or lifting, we can typically put it right, on kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and basins & vanity units alike.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Common problems we fix in Dudley Hill
In time, even good sealant discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Damp near the bath
- A messy previous reseal
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
Before you book anyone
- How the room is protected while they work
- What preparation is included
- How to care for the finish

Different materials, different repairs
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Use the extractor fan
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
What happens on the day
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take a couple of hours, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Dudley Hill: your questions answered
Do you seal over the old sealant?
We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
You will get the curing time from us, typically around a day.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
Do you cover Dudley Hill?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Dudley Hill. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Resealing in Dudley Hill: why it matters
Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why choose Surface Doctor in Dudley Hill
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- Everything repaired in place
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Fixed prices from your photos

What bath resealing costs
Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Details of any past repairs
For a price in Dudley Hill, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Honest limits
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
