Bath resealing in Thrumpton

Bath resealing in Thrumpton, done in place

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, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. Whether it’s black spots in the silicone and gaps in the seal, we can help, whatever the material.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Questions from Thrumpton

Can new silicone go over old?

We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Do I need to be at home?

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

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Keep the joints dry
  • Air the room after use
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Store bottles on a shelf

Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

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

Do you need bath resealing in Thrumpton?

Even good sealant eventually discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How to care for the finish

How to compare quotes

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a couple of hours for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Landlords, agents and businesses in Thrumpton

If you manage property in Thrumpton, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Resealing in Thrumpton: why it matters

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Thrumpton. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What you get with us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Normally one visit, start to finish

When we’d advise against a repair

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • A flexing bath
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

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

Materials we repair

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