FAQs for Thrintoft

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone won’t bond to old.

How long does resealing take?

Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

How long does silicone take to cure?

We will give you the curing time, usually around a day.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Bath resealing at your home in Thrintoft

A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they protect the walls and floor. We’re often asked to fix stained silicone and a messy previous reseal, across shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and basins & vanity units.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it.

What bath resealing costs

We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • The material and finish
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How hard the colour is to match

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Something in shot to show the size

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

How to look after the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal

Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and do not stand bottles on the seal.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Baths

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

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Hidden water damage
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

What we’re called out for in Thrintoft

Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed while the bath was empty.

Most people contact us when they notice one of these:

  • An untidy old seal
  • Gaps in the seal
  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • Damp near the bath

Before you book anyone

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • How to look after the finish

How to compare quotes

How the visit works

You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It generally takes around two hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Getting a price

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Thrintoft use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
