How we handle bath resealing in Thornton

We reseal baths, shower trays, basins and worktops. A typical reseal takes a couple of hours, then it needs to cure. Common call-outs are for an untidy old seal and black spots in the silicone, on wet rooms, baths and shower trays & enclosures.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What we are called out for in Thornton

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed while the bath was empty.

  • Unsealed corners
  • Damp near the bath
  • Gaps in the seal
  • Mould you can’t clean out

Questions to ask before booking

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • What prep work is covered
  • If travel is included in the price
  • How to look after the finish

Our hiring checklist

Honest limits

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Hidden water damage

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we work on in Thornton

  • Wet rooms

Repairs by material

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

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which typically takes around two hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. We ensure the joint is completely dry.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Advice

How to care for the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Store bottles on a shelf

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, usually around 24 hours.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Why reseal now?

Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

Why us?

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Everything repaired in place
  • One visit for most repairs

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Thornton use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Your questions about bath resealing in Thornton

What areas do you cover?

The entire UK, including all of Pembrokeshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.

How do I book?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

Usually after around 24 hours. We’ll tell you the exact time.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed quote, normally with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
