Bath resealing in Inverasdale, done in place

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. We work on wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks, and people most often call us about mould you can’t clean out and missing sealant behind the taps.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Questions from Inverasdale

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Will the price change on the day?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Are you accredited?

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

How long does a reseal take?

Usually a couple of hours, plus curing time.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

How to care for the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Air the room after use
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Keep bottles off the joints

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, usually 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’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Signs you need bath resealing in Inverasdale

Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed while the bath was empty.

People usually call us when they notice one of these:

  • Leaks at the edges
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Gaps in the seal
  • Mould you can’t clean out

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • What happens if they find more damage

How to compare quotes

Honest limits

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we work on in Inverasdale

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a couple of hours. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Why it’s worth resealing in Inverasdale

Resealing costs very little. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Inverasdale

  • A fixed quote before you book
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

See our prices page.

Work for landlords and builders

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

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.

Repairs by material

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
