About our bath resealing in Thorrington
All of the old sealant is cut out, deal with any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. Our technicians work on baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures, and the jobs we see most are a messy previous reseal and mould you can’t clean out.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

When a repair is not the answer
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Hidden water damage
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
- Shower trays & enclosures

- Kitchen worktops & sinks
What affects the price in Thorrington
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

- How much damage there is
- Doing more than one item at once
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to look after the repair
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Air the room after use
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Wipe the joints dry after use
Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
Common questions in Thorrington
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do you work in Thorrington?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Thorrington from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
What information do you need?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
See our prices page.
The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes about two hours for a bath. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
How to get a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
