For landlords and businesses

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Poundon use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

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 pictures, as it can add time.

What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a couple of hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Shower trays

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

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Questions from Poundon

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK, and that includes Poundon. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Usually because the bath or tray moves. We fill the bath before sealing it.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

What information do you need?

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

Do you come to Poundon?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Poundon. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

How long will it take?

Generally a couple of hours, plus curing time.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Keep bottles off the joints

Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and do not stand bottles on the seal.

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Resealing in Poundon: why it matters

Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Poundon. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Poundon

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • No need to remove anything
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

What bath resealing costs

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage
  • The size and number of damaged areas

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. Try to include:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The material, if you know it

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
