How the job changes by surface
Kitchen worktops & upstands
Worktop joints get wet and wiped every day. The new bead is colour-matched where it shows, so the line does not stand out.
Shower trays & enclosures
Shower trays are sealed to the wall, and enclosures are sealed to the tray and tiles. Both take water every day, so both are resealed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone.

What affects the quote in Ballingdon Bottom
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:
- How many areas need sealing
- Whether the work is at height
- When we can work, for business premises
- The product the joint needs
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs, plus any working-time requirements on site. Ask us for a quote and we will explain what it covers.
Helping us quote
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can tell us:
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- The rough size of the job
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
Quotes start with a quick conversation. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is. Whenever you’re ready, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
Why act early in Ballingdon Bottom
Running new silicone over the old joint can look tidy for a few weeks, but it cannot stick to what’s underneath. It lifts, traps water and grows mould behind it. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Ballingdon Bottom, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
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. Your quote takes all of that into account.
Why book with us
- Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas
- Tidy, careful work
- Over 20 years’ experience
- One-year guarantee on every job

Ballingdon Bottom questions
Is Ballingdon Bottom within the area you cover?
Yes, Ballingdon Bottom is covered. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
I let a flat near Berkhamsted station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as householders, 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.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit.
When can I use the bath or shower again?
After around 24 hours in most cases. We will tell you the cure time for the product we used.
Should I try DIY first?
That depends on the joint. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional.
Do you guarantee your resealing?
Yes, a 12-month guarantee. Looking after the joint as we suggest helps it last.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we tidy up before we go.
Do you reseal kitchen worktops and sinks too?
Yes, often alongside a bathroom. Where it’s needed by the sink, we use a food-safe sealant.
Ballingdon Bottom homes and their sealant
Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.

When to call us in Ballingdon Bottom
Black mould is behind a lot of resealing. Steamy rooms that don’t dry out give mould all the damp it needs, and mould that has grown into the silicone normally will not clean off.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Water getting behind the kitchen upstand
- Sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away
- A reseal done over the top of the old bead
- Lumpy, uneven sealant from a DIY attempt
Schools such as Gaddesden Row JMI School are buildings too, and its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.
Questions to ask before booking
- Who turns up on the day
- Is VAT in the price?
- How long to leave it before use
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
What happens on the day

DIY versus a professional finish
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. We can quote for more than one property at once.
