Bath resealing for Thorley Street homes

About our bath resealing in Thorley Street

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. If you’re dealing with old sealant that looks dirty and mould you can’t clean out, we can help.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

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

Is resealing worth it?

Putting new silicone over old does not last. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

What you get with us

  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Most jobs done in one visit

Landlords, agents and businesses in Thorley Street

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Thorley Street questions

How long will it take?

Typically a couple of hours, plus curing time.

What do you need from me?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

What happens if you find more damage?

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

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do you cover the entire of Hertfordshire?

The whole UK, including all of Hertfordshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

When a repair is not the answer

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

What we do, step by step

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a couple of hours, including clearing up.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

How to get a price

Prices and what affects them

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

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Thorley Street. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any details about the material
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • Something in shot to show the size

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Common problems we fix in Thorley Street

No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • An untidy old seal
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Leaks at the edges

What your quote should include

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Aftercare advice
  • What preparation is included
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Our hiring checklist

Keeping it looking good

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Store bottles on a shelf

Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
