Bath resealing at your home in Thorpe Willoughby
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. Whether it’s old sealant that looks dirty and an untidy old seal, we can generally put it right, on baths, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures alike.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

How to look after the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Open a window after bathing
- 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.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Common problems we fix in Thorpe Willoughby
Even good sealant eventually discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.
Look out for any of the following:
- Stained silicone
- Black spots in the silicone
- A messy previous reseal
- Missing sealant behind the taps
What to look for in a quote
- What happens if they find more damage
- What protection goes down before work starts
- How the colour is matched
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
What we can’t put right
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- A flexing bath

Landlord and trade work in Thorpe Willoughby

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Is resealing worth it?
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
