For landlords and businesses
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Sefton and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
How to care for the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Questions from Lydiate
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
Do you come to Lydiate?
We do. We send a technician to Lydiate for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Lydiate?
Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your L31 postcode.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
How we price bath resealing
There is no area surcharge for Lydiate. What changes the price is:
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
- Access to the area
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. 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 photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The material, if you know it
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Wet rooms
- Baths
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
Why reseal now?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Why choose Surface Doctor in Lydiate
- Generally one visit, start to finish
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Fixed prices from your photos
- No extra charge for your area
Read our pricing.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a couple of hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Ask for a price
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
