Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Common problems we fix in Orchard Park

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • An untidy old seal
  • Damp near the bath
  • Gaps in the seal
  • Black spots in the silicone

Resealing in Orchard Park: why it matters

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Orchard Park

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Honest limits

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • A flexing bath

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Orchard Park as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Orchard Park: your questions answered

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

How long before I can shower?

Generally after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

How long does resealing take?

Normally a couple of hours, plus curing time.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

How it works

You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It generally takes a couple of hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best:

  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers

Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
