Bath resealing in Hatch Beauchamp

What we do, step by step

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes about two hours for a bath, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We make sure the joint is completely dry.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Questions from Hatch Beauchamp

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

All the old sealant comes out. New silicone will not bond to old.

Do you cover the entire of Somerset?

We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

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.

Landlord and trade work in Hatch Beauchamp

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.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Resealing in Hatch Beauchamp: why it matters

Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Hatch Beauchamp

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers

Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Signs you need bath resealing in Hatch Beauchamp

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

People usually call us when they notice one of these:

  • Leaks at the edges
  • Stained silicone
  • Mould you cannot clean out
  • An untidy old seal

What your quote should include

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What prep work is covered
  • How to care for the finish
