How to look after the new joints
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Let new sealant cure fully before it gets wet
- Avoid abrasive pads on the sealant
- Wipe up water along the back of the worktop
- Stick to a soft cloth and a mild cleaner
Mould needs damp, so keep the room aired. Use the fan, or open a window, while you bathe and for a while afterwards, so the silicone gets a chance to dry.
Small signs come before a leak: a corner lifting, a gap behind the bead, a dark line under the silicone or a damp patch on the ceiling below. Any of these means the joint needs attention.
What affects the cost of bathroom resealing
You’ll get a clear quote before we start. It takes into account:
- Access and height
- How much there is to do
- When we can work, for business premises
- The old material and how stubborn it is
Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You will know the price before we begin.
Helping us quote
When you contact us, it’s useful to know:
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- The rough size of the job
- A few photos by email, if you can
- The type of property
Getting a quote is simple: tell us what needs doing and where, and roughly how big it is. A few photos by email make the job easier to understand, and we will come back to you with a quote.
When it is not the sealant
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what new sealant won’t do:
- Cracks in the tray itself rather than the joint
- Tiles that have come away from the wall
- A tray that rocks until it’s re-bedded
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will say what we think before you book.

Your questions about bathroom resealing in Ayres End
Do you cover Ayres End for bathroom resealing?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Ayres End is part of that. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.
Will you come out to Ayres End?
Yes, Ayres End is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Can you reseal around my kitchen sink and worktop?
Yes. The old sealant is cut out and the joint degreased, because cooking grease stops silicone sticking, then we reseal in a colour to suit.
Where are you based?
We’re a Crawley-based firm. Our area covers South East England, London and Scotland.
How long before the new sealant can get wet?
Around 24 hours is typical, and we confirm the time for the product used. Using it sooner can damage the bead.
Will you leave a mess?
Not at all. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We are an ARBOMaster approved applicator.

Bathroom resealing around Ayres End
Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
If you look after a building such as The Grove Infant and Nursery School, washroom and kitchen sealant there needs the same care as at home, and schools and businesses are part of our work as well as homes. Rented homes near Harpenden station change hands often, and mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets. In the older streets around Parish Church of Saint John the Baptist, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

Leave it or put it right?
Bleach and mould sprays may lighten black marks for a while, but where mould is inside the silicone it generally comes back. Cutting it out and resealing with anti-fungal silicone is the fix that lasts. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Ayres End, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
We don’t show prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a quick quote, please call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll talk you through it.

How the job changes by surface
Basins & vanity units
Vanity units have long, worktop-style joints against the wall. Water that gets behind can damage the unit, so a neat, continuous bead matters.
Shower trays & enclosures
Water often gets past the wall profile of a shower enclosure. We reseal it along with the base of the enclosure, sealing the side the enclosure’s instructions call for.

The process
When we get to you, 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 around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom. In a small place like Ayres End, access is normally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We start by protecting the area and stripping out the old bead.
- We clean and degrease the joint and treat any mould.
- We let it dry fully and fill the bath with water before sealing.
- A single bead of anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied and tooled smooth.
- We tidy up and give you the cure time, generally around 24 hours.
Before we arrive
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
