Common problems we fix in Eastrea

Sealant doesn’t last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Gaps by the taps
  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • Damp near the bath
  • Silicone smeared on tiles

What your quote should include

  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How to care for the finish
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

Our hiring checklist

Bath resealing in Eastrea, done in place

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. If you are dealing with gaps in the seal and black spots in the silicone, we can generally put it right, on shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & sinks alike.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back.

Eastrea: your questions answered

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

How long does a reseal take?

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

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Eastrea included. There is no extra charge for travel.

Landlord and trade work in Eastrea

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Cambridgeshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes about two hours for a bath. The room is left tidy.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Ask for a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Why reseal now?

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 your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Eastrea

  • No need to remove anything
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Read our full price list.

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Ventilate the bathroom well

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally around 24 hours.

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

How we price bath resealing

Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Access to the area
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Unusual colours or finishes

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Eastrea. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any details about the material
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

When a repair is not the answer

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • A flexing bath

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
