Bath resealing in Thuxton

Bath resealing at your home in Thuxton

Preparation is everything in a reseal: 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. Whether it’s black spots in the silicone and silicone smeared on tiles, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Norfolk.

What a repair can’t fix

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

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • A flexing bath
  • Hollow or loose tiles

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Landlord and trade work in Thuxton

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Norfolk and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

When to call us in Thuxton

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed while the bath was empty.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • A messy previous reseal
  • Gaps in the seal
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Unsealed corners

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • How your room will be protected

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best:

  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Ventilate the bathroom well

Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

The process

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take around two hours. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Advice

What bath resealing costs

You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The type of damage
  • Access to the area
  • What the surface is made of
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Quotes from your pictures

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • What it’s made of, if you know

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

FAQs for Thuxton

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Norfolk.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

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

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Can new silicone go over old?

No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Why does mould come back so fast?

Damp is the cause. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
