Prices and what affects them
We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Access to the area
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- The material, if you know it
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A photo taken from further back
If you are in Thurstonfield and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Bath resealing in Thurstonfield without replacing anything
A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. Our repair technicians work on wet rooms, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people get in touch are black mould in the sealant and leaks at the edges.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Different materials, different repairs
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Let steam out after showers
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Use the extractor fan
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Thurstonfield: your questions answered
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can new silicone go over old?
We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone won’t bond to old.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Do you come to Thurstonfield?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Thurstonfield for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

The process
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take around two hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
How to get a price
Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your CA5 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Is resealing worth it?
Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Thurstonfield. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
