What happens on the day

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take around two hours. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  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

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let us know about parking or access

Your questions about bath resealing in Threemilestone

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Threemilestone?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

How long does resealing take?

Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

How long before I can shower?

Typically after around 24 hours. We’ll tell you the exact time.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Shower trays

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

Prices and what affects them

You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The colour and finish to match

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Send pictures for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any details about the material

For a price in Threemilestone, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best:

  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Air the room after use
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Store bottles on a shelf

Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Why it’s worth resealing in Threemilestone

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. 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 Threemilestone

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • No need to remove anything
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

Take a look at our pricing.

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
