Bathroom & kitchen resealing in Alscot, Buckinghamshire
Baths, showers and worktops in Alscot need attention? We remove the old material, prepare the joints and seal them properly.
- Two layers of silicone, both failing
- Water escaping at the shower enclosure
- Shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop
What happens on the day
A visit follows a simple pattern: we look at the joints together, protect the area around them, carry out the job and clear up. Most jobs take half a day or less for one room, longer when the kitchen is included. In a small place like Alscot, access is normally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- 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.
- The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

Bathroom resealing in Alscot
Sealant that’s mouldy, cracked or peeling is worth sorting before it lets water through. A photo of the joints helps when you phone 0345 464 0079 or email us, and you will get a clear quote before any work starts. We work on basins & vanity units, sinks & splashbacks and shower trays & enclosures, and the jobs we see most are water getting behind the kitchen upstand and failed sealant on the screen profile.
In a village or hamlet like Alscot, homes are often older cottages and farmhouses alongside a few newer houses. Movement in older walls and floors tends to show first as cracked grout or split sealant.
Every job is covered by a 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in Buckinghamshire.

Why it’s worth doing now in Alscot
A clean new bead makes a room look cared for, which helps when a home is being let or put on the market. Lumpy sealant with smears on the tiles has the opposite effect. Around Alscot, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.

What we cannot put right
New sealant can’t fix everything, and we will tell you before any work starts. Sealant won’t put right:
- Movement from a bath with loose feet or no proper support
- A leaking waste, trap or valve
- Loose or hollow tiles, or failed tanking behind them
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will tell you honestly.
What we seal
- Baths
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Sinks & splashbacks
- Kitchen worktops & upstands
- Basins & vanity units
Can I do it myself?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
FAQs for Alscot
Do you work for landlords with property near Monks Risborough station?
Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before we start.
Can you do bathroom resealing in Alscot?
Yes, Alscot is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job.
Does the resealing come with a guarantee?
Yes, for 12 months. Looking after the joint as we suggest helps it last.
How long does a bath or shower reseal take?
That depends on the number of joints and the state of the old sealant. For most single baths or showers, allow a couple of hours.
Can I do it myself?
That depends on the joint. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
Do you have insurance?
Yes, we’re fully insured for every job we do.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, every time. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so the joint is cleaned back first.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Of course. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit, so mention them when you ask for a quote.

Bathroom resealing around Alscot
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.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Princes Risborough Primary School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. Homes close to St Teresa's Church include some older properties, and timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

What we’re called out for in Alscot
Black mould is behind a lot of resealing. Bathrooms without good ventilation give mould all the damp it needs, and mould that has grown into the silicone normally won’t clean off.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- Black mould in the silicone that won’t clean off
- New sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting
- Gaps where the bath or tray has moved
- Lumpy, uneven sealant from a DIY attempt
Letting a property close to Monks Risborough station? Then fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay.
Questions to ask before you book
- Are they insured?
- When the joint can take water or movement
- How hidden problems are handled
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:
- Wipe up water along the back of the worktop
- Clean with a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth
- Squeegee the walls and tray after use
- Move toiletries away from the joint
Have a look at the joints every few months. Small splits and lifting ends are easy to catch early, and if anything looks wrong, just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
A few black dots in the silicone soon become a black line. When it has grown right through, it rarely cleans out. Catching it early keeps it a simple reseal.
