About our bath resealing in Thornborough
A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Fresh joints make the whole room look cleaner, and they keep water out. We’re frequently asked to fix missing sealant behind the taps and black mould in the sealant, on basins & vanity units, wet rooms and baths.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it.

Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Let steam out after showers
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
Common problems we fix in Thornborough
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Gaps in the seal
- Gaps by the taps
- Black spots in the silicone

How we price bath resealing
We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The type of damage
- The material
- The size and number of damaged areas
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- Details of any past repairs
- Any details about the material
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Why it’s worth resealing in Thornborough
Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: 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.
What you get with us
- We leave the room as we found it
- No need to remove anything
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Every repair guaranteed for a year

Honest limits
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Hidden water damage
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Thornborough: your questions answered
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
How long does silicone take to cure?
Normally after around 24 hours. We’ll tell you the exact time.
Do you work in Thornborough?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Thornborough from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
