Bath resealing in Swimbridge without replacing anything
All of the old sealant is cut out, deal with any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. We work on wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people contact us are missing sealant behind the taps and damp near the bath.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Do you need bath resealing in Swimbridge?
Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed with the bath empty.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Unsealed corners
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- An untidy old seal
- Damp near the bath

Resealing in Swimbridge: why it matters
Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why choose Surface Doctor in Swimbridge
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- One visit for most repairs

Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
Landlord and trade work in Swimbridge
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
If you manage property in Swimbridge, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.
When we would advise against a repair
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. 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’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
How it works
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a couple of hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Ensure the area is dry
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
