Bathroom resealing near Adgestone

Bathroom resealing in Adgestone, done properly

With over 20 years in the trade, we reseal baths, showers and kitchens in homes across Adgestone. We’re ARBOMaster approved and fully insured, and every job carries our one-year guarantee. We work on baths, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures, and people most often call us about shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop and smears of silicone across the tiles.

Homes around Adgestone are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. The work is the same as anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

What the job involves on each surface

Sinks & splashbacks

The edge of an inset sink is a common place for water to get under the worktop. We reseal the visible edge of the sink where it has failed.

Kitchen worktops & upstands

Laminate worktops swell if water gets into the core. A sound joint along the back edge stops that.

DIY sealant or a professional job?

The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.

Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.

What bathroom resealing looks like in Adgestone

Adgestone is close to the coast. Near the coast, holiday lets and guest houses can see bathrooms used by one guest after another, which wears sealant and grout out faster than in a quiet home. There are hotels and other places to stay in and around Adgestone. Hotel bathrooms are part of our work as well as homes, and can be done room by room.

Rented homes near Sandown station change hands often, and fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay. Homes close to Church of St. John the Evangelist include some older properties, and bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

Adgestone is about 4 miles south of Ryde, in the Isle of Wight. Adgestone gets the same service as everywhere we cover: old sealant removed completely, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee. Our area takes in 125 places across the Isle of Wight. We also work in Portsmouth, around 10 miles away.

What we’re called out for in Adgestone

Older sealant shrinks and hardens. In kitchens it often shrinks away from the back edge, leaving a thin gap where water and food collect. Hot pans and harsh cleaners don’t help.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Black spots spreading through the bead
  • A messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal
  • Water escaping at the shower enclosure
  • Gaps between the worktop and the wall

For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Brading Church of England Controlled Primary School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

  • Who turns up on the day
  • Which colour the sealant will be
  • How long to leave it before use

Adgestone questions

Do you work in hotels near Adgestone?

Yes, we work for hotels as well as homes and businesses. A room-by-room programme keeps most rooms in use while the work goes on.

I let a flat near Sandown station. Can you help?

Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details for a clear quote.

When can I use the bath or shower again?

We give you the cure time before we leave, and it’s usually around 24 hours. Using it sooner can damage the bead.

How do I get a quote for bathroom resealing in Adgestone?

We do not publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. You will get a clear quote before work begins.

Should I try DIY first?

For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.

What do you need from me for a quote?

The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. Photos by email help too.

Do you guarantee your resealing?

Yes. All our work comes with a 12-month guarantee.

Do you cover Adgestone?

Yes. We’re based in Crawley and work across South East England, London and Scotland.

For landlords and businesses

We also work for property managers and facilities teams in Adgestone and across the Isle of Wight. Several sites can be quoted together.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements and we will quote.

How to look after the new joints

Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:

  • Check the joints every few months for splits or lifting
  • Let new sealant cure fully before it gets wet
  • Wipe up water along the back of the worktop
  • Squeegee the walls and tray after use

Do not stand bottles along the bead, as they hold water against it. Squeegeeing the walls and tray after use helps the joint dry.

Worktop joints fail quietly. Splashes run behind the back edge and soak into the worktop, where it can make the board swell. A reseal in time can save the worktop.

How it works

Most of a good job is in the preparation, so that is where we spend the time. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. In total, it usually takes a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen. In a small place like Adgestone, access is usually the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. First, each joint is checked for movement and signs of water.
  2. Every trace of the old bead is removed, including the thin smear on the tiles.
  3. Joints are degreased and any mould is treated.
  4. With the joint dry, and any bath loaded with water, a single bead of anti-fungal silicone is applied.
  5. We tool the bead to a neat finish and give you the cure time, usually around 24 hours.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any water getting in
  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
