Bath resealing near Tholthorpe

Bath resealing in Tholthorpe, done in place

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. We are often asked to fix leaks at the edges and silicone smeared on tiles, in wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Tholthorpe and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Your questions about bath resealing in Tholthorpe

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

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

How long does silicone take to cure?

We will give you the curing time.

Do you come to Tholthorpe?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Tholthorpe. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Honest limits

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Hidden water damage
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

  • Wet rooms
  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Baths

How we price bath resealing

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

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What the surface is made of
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

How to get a fixed quote

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

What we are called out for in Tholthorpe

Even good sealant eventually discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Unsealed corners
  • Leaks at the edges

Before booking anyone

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

Our hiring checklist

What we do, step by step

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take about two hours for a bath. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Ask for a price

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

Different materials, different repairs

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Resealing in Tholthorpe: why it matters

Resealing costs very little and protects the walls and floor. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why Tholthorpe customers choose us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

See our prices page.

How to look after the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

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

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
