Bathroom resealing in Askett
The bead of silicone around a bath, tray or worktop is what keeps water out of the gaps. When it splits, shrinks or turns black, water gets behind it. Our team cut the old bead out completely and lay a new one in anti-fungal sanitary silicone. Typical jobs include a joint torn by a bath that flexes and sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away, on sinks & splashbacks, shower trays & enclosures and baths.
Around Askett, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats. The work is the same as anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.
We stand behind the work with a 12-month guarantee, so you’re covered after we have gone.

DIY versus a professional finish
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
When to call us in Askett
With age, silicone loses its stretch. In kitchens it often shrinks away from the back edge, opening a hairline gap that lets water and crumbs in. Hot pans and harsh cleaners don’t help.
The problems people usually mention when they call are:
- A reseal done over the top of the old bead
- A messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal
- Gaps where the bath or tray has moved
- Water getting behind the kitchen upstand
If you live in an older home near Church of St Dunstan, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.
Before booking anyone
- Are they insured?
- Whether you can choose the colour
- When the joint can take water or movement
- What product goes in the joint
Looking after it afterwards
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Do not leave water standing on kitchen joints
- Keep scourers and sharp tools away from the bead
- Let new sealant cure fully before it gets wet
- Keep an eye on the corners, where splits start
In a kitchen, do not let water sit along the back of the worktop and keep hot pans away from the silicone. The drier the joint stays, the longer it lasts.
A failed kitchen joint is easy to miss. Splashes run behind the back edge and soak into the worktop, and the board underneath can swell. Resealing before that happens protects the worktop.
Your questions about bathroom resealing in Askett
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Monks Risborough station?
Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as homeowners, and several properties can go on one quote. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Do you cover Askett for bathroom resealing?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Askett is part of that. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Will you leave a mess?
Tidy work is part of the job. We protect what’s around the joints.
Where are you based?
We’re based in Crawley, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work, and we can confirm the details when we quote.
What colours of sealant can you use?
We can use white, clear or a colour to suit. Where the joint is on show, we match it to the surface.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. Hotels, offices and other businesses use us and we are fully insured.
Can new silicone go straight over the old?
No, never. Sealing over the top looks fine for a few weeks, then lifts, because silicone does not bond to silicone. We remove the old bead completely before resealing.
What happens on the day
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you. The visit itself usually takes a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers, depending on the amount of work. Somewhere as small as Askett, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- First the area is protected and every bit of old sealant removed.
- The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
- Once it’s dry, any bath is filled so the bead is laid with it at its heaviest.
- New anti-fungal silicone goes on in a colour to suit and is tooled to a clean finish.
- We clear away and tell you when it can get wet, usually after around 24 hours.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Clear the area around the work
- Tell us if parking is tricky

Advice
Why deal with it now?
You do not need a new bathroom because the sealant looks bad. Replacing the joint is usually all it takes. If something else is wrong, we’ll tell you. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Askett, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, plus any working-time requirements on site. Call for a quick quote and we’ll explain what it covers.

When it is not the sealant
New sealant can’t fix everything, and we will tell you before we start. Sealant won’t put right:
- Movement from a bath with loose feet or no proper support
- A leaking waste, trap or valve
- Cracks in the tray itself rather than the joint
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we seal
- Sinks & splashbacks
- Kitchen worktops & upstands
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
- Wet rooms
- Baths
Askett homes and their sealant
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
If you look after a building such as Monks Risborough CofE Primary School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. Letting a property close to Monks Risborough station? Then a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for.
