Bath resealing near Marshborough

About our bath resealing in Marshborough

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. If you are dealing with unsealed corners and silicone smeared on tiles, we can help, on basins & vanity units, baths and shower trays & enclosures alike.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Marshborough as everywhere else we work.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Marshborough

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

See our prices page.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

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.

Your questions about bath resealing in Marshborough

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Are you accredited?

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

Can new silicone go over old?

All the old sealant comes out. New silicone won’t bond to old.

What does bath resealing cost?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you price it without visiting?

Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

Common problems we fix in Marshborough

In time, even good sealant discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.

  • Stained silicone
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles

10 questions to ask before you book

When a repair isn’t the answer

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

What affects the price in Marshborough

Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A photo taken from further back

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

The process

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes a couple of hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Get a quote

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
