About our bathroom resealing in Alkerton
Showers work their sealant harder than baths. Tray edges, screen profiles and wet room joints all rely on silicone to stay watertight. Each gets a bead of anti-fungal sanitary silicone, tooled smooth so water runs off instead of sitting in a ridge. We work on baths, kitchen worktops & upstands and shower trays & enclosures, and people most often call us about a joint torn by a bath that flexes and leaks into the floor or ceiling below.
For a small place like Alkerton, bathroom resealing is planned like any other job: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.
Every job comes with a one-year guarantee.

How we quote for bathroom resealing
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:
- The number and length of the joints
- When we can work, for business premises
- How many areas need sealing
- Whether the work is at height
A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
What we need to know
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- The type of property
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
For a quick quote, get us on the phone, or send an email if you’d rather. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we will talk you through the work before giving you a price.
What happens on the day
Once we are on site, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. After that, the work takes half a day or less for one room, longer when the kitchen is included. For a village or hamlet like Alkerton, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- First, each joint is checked for movement and signs of water.
- Every trace of the old bead is removed, including the thin smear on the tiles.
- Joints are degreased and any mould is treated.
- With the joint dry, and any bath loaded with water, a single bead of anti-fungal silicone is applied.
- We tool the bead to a neat finish and give you the cure time, generally around 24 hours.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Keep children and pets away from the work area

Related advice
What we’re called out for in Alkerton
Plenty of failed sealant has been laid over the top of older sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, so it peels, leaks and hides mould behind it.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Failed sealant on the screen profile
- Mouldy sealant that has gone black
- Smears of silicone across the tiles
- Water getting behind the bath panel
Managing a site like Shenington Church of England Primary School? Then its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.
What to look for in a quote
- How hidden problems are handled
- How much experience the applicator has
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
- Are they insured?
What happens if it’s left?
A quick bead over the top of the old one might look better for a while, but it will not bond. It lifts, traps water and grows mould behind it, so the next person has twice as much to remove. Older cottages and farmhouses around Alkerton can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Doing several joints on one visit usually makes better use of the time than several visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. You’ll get one clear quote for the whole job.

Should I try it myself first?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
If you manage several properties in or around Alkerton, several properties can be quoted together. Send us the addresses and the work at each.
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, the work is the same standard: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a one-year guarantee.
Surface by surface
Wet rooms
In a wet room, the joints between floor and walls take standing water. They’re resealed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone, and our work is on the visible joints only.
Shower trays & enclosures
If a tray moves underfoot, new silicone won’t last. Movement is checked before anything is resealed, and if the tray needs refixing, we’ll say so.
Alkerton: your questions answered
Can you do bathroom resealing in Alkerton?
Yes, Alkerton is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job, and we will give you a clear price.
Will you come out to Alkerton?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Is there any odour?
Possibly a little. It fades as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, and it’s something we never do.
Should I try DIY first?
It depends on the job. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator and we’re fully insured too.
Do you do kitchens as well as bathrooms?
Yes. Kitchen joints get extra degreasing before the new bead goes on, then a colour-matched bead is laid.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. Larger jobs can be planned room by room or area by area.

Alkerton homes and their sealant
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
Homes close to Church of St Michael include some older properties, and timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.
