FAQs for Thornholme

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

How long does resealing take?

Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Normally because the bath or tray moves. We seal baths full of water.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Resealing in Thornholme: why it matters

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why us?

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Everything repaired in place

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

What a repair cannot fix

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Wet rooms
  • Baths
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

What happens on the day

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a couple of hours, tidy-up included.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Advice

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Air the room after use
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

Common problems we fix in Thornholme

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: damp hangs around, and mould takes hold.

The things clients typically mention when they call include:

  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Stained silicone
  • A messy previous reseal

Before you book anyone

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Aftercare advice
  • What happens if they find more damage
