Bath resealing in Wolviston

Bath resealing at your home in Wolviston

All of the old sealant is cut out, deal with any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. We are often asked to fix stained silicone and black spots in the silicone, in wet rooms, baths and basins & vanity units.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

Shower trays

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

How we price bath resealing

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Access to the area
  • Doing more than one item at once

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Wolviston. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Is resealing worth it?

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. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Wolviston

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • One visit for most repairs

Landlord and trade work in Wolviston

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

How to look after the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Air the room after use
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Ventilate the bathroom well

Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
