Bath resealing for Thruxton homes

Repairs by material

Sinks and worktops

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

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

About our bath resealing in Thruxton

We reseal baths, shower trays, basins and worktops using mould-resistant silicone. Most jobs take a couple of hours, then it needs to cure. Common call-outs are for an untidy old seal and missing sealant behind the taps, across basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do you need bath resealing in Thruxton?

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning cannot get it all out.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • A messy previous reseal
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Unsealed corners
  • Leaks at the edges

Before you book anyone

  • How your room will be protected
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How soon you can use it again
  • How to care for the finish

Choosing a repair company

When we would advise against a repair

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

Thruxton questions

How long does resealing take?

Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.

Is repairing better than replacing?

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

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

How long does silicone take to cure?

Normally about a day later. We’ll tell you the exact time.

Can new silicone go over old?

All the old sealant comes out. New silicone will not bond to old.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

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

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

The process

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes around two hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  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. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Related advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

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.

Is resealing worth it?

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Why us?

  • No need to remove anything
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

What bath resealing costs

Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material and finish

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
