What happens on the day

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a couple of hours. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Open a window if you can

Getting a price

Advice

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Let steam out after showers

Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

What bath resealing costs

You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material and finish

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from photos

You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:

  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Something in shot to show the size

Email us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Palacefields, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

FAQs for Palacefields

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

What happens next?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.

Are there extra charges for Palacefields?

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

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the entire UK, including Palacefields and the rest of Halton. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, 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.

Why it’s worth resealing in Palacefields

Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Palacefields

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
