Bath resealing in Thorpe Green, done in place

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. Whether it’s missing sealant behind the taps and sealant that’s split or lifting, we can help.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

Resealing in Thorpe Green: why it matters

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is and protects the walls and floor. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

The process

We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes about two hours for a bath.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Getting a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Common problems we fix in Thorpe Green

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Unsealed corners
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Damp near the bath
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant

Questions to ask before booking

  • What preparation is included
  • If travel is included in the price
  • How your room will be protected
  • Who will actually do the work

Choosing a repair company

When we’d advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Thorpe Green: your questions answered

Are you a vetted contractor?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Surrey.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can new silicone go over old?

No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.

Prices and what affects them

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Thorpe Green. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Open a window after bathing
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers

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

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
