Bath resealing in Thorpe Morieux

How we handle bath resealing in Thorpe Morieux

A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. We regularly repair wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units, and people most often call us about water getting behind the bath or tray and silicone coming away from the tiles.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee.

What bath resealing costs

There’s no charge for travel to Thorpe Morieux. The price depends on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material
  • Doing more than one item at once

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Thorpe Morieux. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • One picture of the entire bath or shower
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Something in shot to show the size

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Repairs by material

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

What we are called out for in Thorpe Morieux

Even good sealant eventually discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • A messy previous reseal
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Old sealant that looks dirty

What your quote should include

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Thorpe Morieux questions

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Thorpe Morieux included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

Is repairing better than replacing?

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

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

How to care for the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off

Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Resealing in Thorpe Morieux: why it matters

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors.

  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It generally takes around two hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  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. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

How to get a price

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.

What we cannot put right

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

  • A flexing bath
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
