Ashmore Green questions

Will you come out to Ashmore Green?

Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.

Do you work for landlords with property near Newbury Racecourse station?

Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear price.

What do you put in the joint?

Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, chosen to suit the joint. We explain the product when we quote.

How long does a bath or shower reseal take?

One bath or shower is around two hours’ work, including cutting out the old sealant. A whole bathroom plus the kitchen may take most of the day.

Do the sealants smell?

It depends on the product. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little.

Are you insured?

Yes. We are fully insured for every job we do.

Do you do kitchens as well as bathrooms?

Yes, often alongside a bathroom. Next to the sink we use a food-safe product where it’s needed.

Will the old sealant be removed?

Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned.

How we handle bathroom resealing in Ashmore Green

A fresh bead of silicone changes how a bathroom looks more than most people expect. Black, patchy sealant makes clean tiles look tired, and a clean white or clear joint fixes it quickly. It also seals the gaps that let water behind the bath. If you have water getting behind the kitchen upstand and cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone, we can put it right, whatever the surface.

Homes around Ashmore Green 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.

There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, large or small.

Do you need bathroom resealing in Ashmore Green?

Plenty of failed sealant has been laid over the top of older sealant. Fresh silicone can’t grip the old bead underneath, so it peels, leaks and hides mould behind it.

It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:

  • A reseal done over the top of the old bead
  • Black mould in the silicone that won’t clean off
  • A joint torn by a bath that flexes
  • Shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop

If you live in an older home near St. Mark's Church, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether you can choose the colour
  • Whether they seal over old material or remove it
  • What product goes in the joint
  • How the joint is cleaned and prepared

10 questions to ask before you book

DIY sealant or a professional job?

Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.

A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Ashmore Green

Letting agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements and we will quote.

We work for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners. Resealing between tenancies keeps a property looking cared for.

Quotes for bathroom resealing in Ashmore Green

Call for a quick quote. The main things that affect it are:

  • Any working-time requirements on site
  • The size of the job
  • Whether the work is at height
  • The product the joint needs

Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part.

What to tell us for a quote

To help us quote quickly, please include:

  • Any access issues, like height or stairs
  • What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
  • Whether it has been sealed before
  • How many joints, rooms or windows are involved

Need a quote? Please ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details. We will explain what we’d do and give you a clear quote before work begins.

What we can’t put right

We’d rather tell you now than do work that won’t last, so here’s what sealant can’t put right:

  • Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Movement from a bath with loose feet or no proper support
  • Tiles that have come away from the wall

Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we seal

  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Wet rooms
  • Baths
  • Sinks & splashbacks
  • Kitchen worktops & upstands
  • Basins & vanity units

What we do, step by step

Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and explain the cure time. The work normally takes two to three hours for a typical bath, depending on how much old sealant there is, depending on the size of the job. For a village or hamlet like Ashmore Green, 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.

  1. We protect the area and cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
  3. We let it dry fully and fill the bath with water before sealing.
  4. New anti-fungal silicone goes on in a colour to suit and is tooled to a clean finish.
  5. We tidy up and give you the cure time, usually around 24 hours.

How to prepare

  • Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
  • Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
  • Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

Why it’s worth doing now in Ashmore Green

Most of the work in a good reseal happens before any silicone goes on: cutting out every trace of the old bead, cleaning, treating mould and letting the joint dry. Skip those steps and even the best silicone fails early. In a small place like Ashmore Green, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
