Johnstown questions

How soon can you come?

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

How long does silicone take to cure?

Generally after around 24 hours. We’ll tell you the exact time.

Do you cover Johnstown?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Johnstown. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

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

We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your LL14 postcode.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Usually poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

What happens next?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Shower trays

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

Resealing in Johnstown: why it matters

Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. 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 Johnstown

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

See our prices page.

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 will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

What a repair cannot fix

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

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we work on in Johnstown

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

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Air the room after use

Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use.

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

How the visit works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a couple of hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

How to get a price

How we price bath resealing

Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many areas need work
  • The type of damage

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A picture taken from further back
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Johnstown, and we will reply with a fixed price.
