How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a couple of hours. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Getting a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

FAQs for Thorney Hill
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide. Prices do not change with location.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
How long does resealing take?
Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
If you are 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.
When a repair is not the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Basins & vanity units
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
How to look after the repair
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Open a window after bathing
- Wipe the joints dry after use
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Is resealing worth it?
Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
