Bath resealing near Furzehill

About our bath resealing in Furzehill

We cut out all of the old sealant, treat any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. Our technicians work on basins & vanity units, kitchen worktops & sinks and wet rooms, and the jobs we see most are missing sealant behind the taps and gaps in the seal.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Prices and what affects them

We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • Access to the area
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What kind of damage it is

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Furzehill. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

If you’re in Furzehill and want a price, pictures 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.

Poor ventilation speeds things up: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould takes hold.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant

Questions to ask before you book

Resealing in Furzehill: why it matters

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Furzehill

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Generally one visit, start to finish

See our prices page.

For landlords and businesses

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

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which usually takes a couple of hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Open a window if you can

What a repair cannot fix

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

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

Materials we repair

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

How to look after the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting

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

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.
