Landlords, agents and businesses in Thorney Island
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Bath resealing in Thorney Island, done in place
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. We work on kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and baths, and people most frequently call us about silicone smeared on tiles and gaps in the seal.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Thorney Island: your questions answered
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
You will get the curing time from us.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
How long does resealing take?
Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone won’t bond to old.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Thorney Island.
When we’d advise against a repair
We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- A flexing bath
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Other services in Thorney Island
What your bath or shower is made of matters
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.
Is resealing worth it?
Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Thorney Island. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why Thorney Island customers choose us
- We leave the room as we found it
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK

Common problems we fix in Thorney Island
In time, even good sealant discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Mould you can’t clean out
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Stained silicone
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What happens if they find more damage
- How soon you can use it again
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Air the room after use
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
