When to call us in Great Thorness
Sealant does not last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- A messy previous reseal
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Gaps in the seal
What your quote should include
- How to look after the finish
- What prep work is covered

Bath resealing in Great Thorness without replacing anything
A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Fresh joints make the entire room look cleaner, and they keep water out. Whether it’s stained silicone and damp near the bath, we can generally put it right, on shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and basins & vanity units alike.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Your questions about bath resealing in Great Thorness
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK. Prices don’t change with location.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Open a window after bathing
Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

What else we do in Great Thorness
What we can’t put right
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
- Shower trays & enclosures
How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, 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 by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We make sure the joint is completely dry.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
