Landlords, agents and businesses in West Horrington

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Bath resealing at your home in West Horrington

We reseal baths, shower trays, basins and worktops, with mould-resistant sanitary silicone. A typical reseal takes a couple of hours, plus curing time. Whether it’s unsealed corners and sealant that’s split or lifting, we can help.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Somerset.

Prices and what affects them

A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material and finish

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The material, if you know it
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take around two hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Resealing in West Horrington: why it matters

Putting new silicone over old does not last. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why choose Surface Doctor in West Horrington

  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Air the room after use
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Keep bottles off the joints

Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and do not stand bottles on the seal.

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Can I fix it myself?

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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Common questions in West Horrington

What happens next?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.

Do you cover the entire of Somerset?

We cover the whole UK, including West Horrington and the rest of Somerset. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

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

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
