Common questions in Sling

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

How long does silicone take to cure?

You’ll get the curing time from us, usually around a day.

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.

How much does bath resealing cost in Sling?

Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

How long does a reseal take?

Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.

Is it messy?

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

How soon can you come?

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

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Shower trays

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

Sinks and worktops

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

Prices and what affects them

Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many areas need work
  • The type of damage

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Quotes from your pictures

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

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

When we would advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Hollow or loose tiles

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

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

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the work takes about two hours for a bath. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Advice

Signs you need bath resealing in Sling

Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed while the bath was empty.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Stained silicone
  • Sealant that is split or lifting
  • Mould you cannot clean out
  • Silicone smeared on tiles

Before booking anyone

  • When it can be used again
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

Choosing a repair company

Resealing in Sling: why it matters

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is and protects the walls and floor. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Sling

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

Read our pricing.

How to care for the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Open a window after bathing
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off

Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
