Bath resealing in East Tuddenham

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a couple of hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

When we would advise against a repair

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

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

What we work on

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

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

If you manage property in East Tuddenham, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

What bath resealing costs

We charge the same across the UK, including East Tuddenham. What changes the price is:

  • The material and finish
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How many areas need work

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Questions from East Tuddenham

Do I need to be at home?

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

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

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

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Normally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Different materials, different repairs

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

What we’re called out for in East Tuddenham

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Stained silicone
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Damp near the bath
  • An untidy old seal

Questions to ask before booking

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • How soon you can use it again
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

Our hiring checklist

Why it’s worth resealing in East Tuddenham

Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why choose Surface Doctor in East Tuddenham

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Fixed prices from your pictures

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting

Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
