Bath resealing in Thorney without replacing anything
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Typical jobs include water getting behind the bath or tray and discoloured, yellow sealant, in baths, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Resealing in Thorney: why it matters
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is and protects the walls and floor. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
What you get with us
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- A fixed quote before you book
- One visit for most repairs
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Repairs by material
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
How it works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take around two hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Before we arrive
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let us know which floor the room is on

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Landlord and trade work in Thorney
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Thorney as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
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.

Questions from Thorney
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Do you cover Thorney?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Thorney. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Thorney?
Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
Normally about a day later. We’ll tell you the exact time.
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
