Bath resealing at your home in Thornhill
Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and resealing puts a stop to that. Whether it’s discoloured, yellow sealant and damp near the bath, we can typically put it right, on wet rooms, basins & vanity units and baths alike.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What affects the price in Thornhill
Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Something in shot to show the size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Details of any past repairs
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Keep the joints dry
- Air the room after use
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, typically around 24 hours.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Why reseal now?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
