Bath resealing in Godstone

What a repair cannot fix

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • A flexing bath
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

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

What we work on

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

Bath resealing at your home in Godstone

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Whether it’s missing sealant behind the taps and sealant that’s split or lifting, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Godstone

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes around two hours. We leave the room clean.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. We ensure the joint is completely dry.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Ask for a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.

10 questions to ask before you book

What bath resealing costs

A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from pictures

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • The material, if you know it
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower

Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your RH9 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. 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.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Resealing in Godstone: why it matters

Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Godstone

  • One visit for most repairs
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

Read our pricing.

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers

Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Godstone questions

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Surrey.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Godstone?

Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

What happens if you find more damage?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
