Questions from Radcliffe on Trent

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Generally because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can new silicone go over old?

All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

What information do you need?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Are there extra charges for Radcliffe on Trent?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

How we price bath resealing

There’s no area surcharge for Radcliffe on Trent. What changes the price is:

  • The material
  • Access to the area
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether we combine several jobs

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking.

Getting a price from photos

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • One picture of the entire bath or shower
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any details about the material
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Most clients in Radcliffe on Trent get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Sinks and worktops

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

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

Why reseal now?

Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Radcliffe on Trent

  • No need to remove anything
  • Work done at your home or business
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple:

  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Give the seal a regular clean

Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for around two hours. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to look after it.

  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. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

What we can’t put right

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • A flexing bath
  • Hollow or loose tiles

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
