Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Bath resealing at your home in Sithney Green

Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they protect the walls and floor. Common call-outs are for black spots in the silicone and water getting behind the bath or tray, on shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and wet rooms.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Repairs by material

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.

Sithney Green: your questions answered

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

You will get the curing time from us.

Do you cover the entire of Cornwall?

All of Cornwall, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

How long does resealing take?

A bath or shower normally takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Can landlords book you?

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

Landlord and trade work in Sithney Green

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Cornwall and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

What bath resealing costs

There’s no charge for travel to Sithney Green. The price comes down to:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

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 to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

What we are called out for in Sithney Green

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning cannot get it all out.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

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

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Resealing in Sithney Green: why it matters

Putting new silicone over old does not last. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Sithney Green. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Sithney Green

  • No extra charge for your area
  • No need to remove anything
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • A fixed quote before booking

How the visit works

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes around two hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  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. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
