About our bathroom resealing in Ballinger Common

It isn’t only bathrooms. Worktop upstands, sink edges and splashback joints all take splashes every day, and water behind a laminate worktop can make it swell. Kitchen joints get a sealant suited to kitchens, colour-matched where it shows. We work on kitchen worktops & upstands, basins & vanity units and sinks & splashbacks, and people most often call us about cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone and black mould in the silicone that won’t clean off.

Somewhere as small as Ballinger Common, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Older walls and timber floors can move a little, and cracked grout and split sealant are often the first signs.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

What happens on the day

There’s no need to move everything out, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the job takes a couple of hours for a single bath or shower for a typical job. Somewhere like Ballinger Common needs a little journey planning: 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 cover the area around the joints we’re working on.
  2. Old sealant is sliced away and the residue removed.
  3. We treat any mould and let the joint dry properly.
  4. Baths are filled first, then anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied in a colour to suit.
  5. The joint is finished neatly and we explain when it can get wet.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
  • Let us know about parking restrictions
  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

Ballinger Common: your questions answered

Do you cover Ballinger Common for bathroom resealing?

Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Ballinger Common is part of that. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job, and we will give you a clear price.

Do you cover smaller places like Ballinger Common?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

How long does a bath or shower reseal take?

It depends on how many joints there are and how much old sealant has to come out. For most single baths or showers, allow a couple of hours.

Do you guarantee your resealing?

Yes. We give a 12-month guarantee on every job, and we’re ARBOMaster approved applicators.

Do you do commercial work?

Yes. We work in offices, washrooms, hotels and other commercial premises, as well as homes. Working times can be discussed when we quote.

Which products do you use?

It depends on the joint: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.

Do you remove the old sealant?

Yes, every time. New sealant won’t bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.

What colours of sealant can you use?

White and clear are the most common choices, and other colours are available to suit tiles, trays and worktops. Tell us what you’d like when you get in touch.

When to call us in Ballinger Common

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 will not clean off.

Common reasons people contact us include:

  • Lumpy, uneven sealant from a DIY attempt
  • Water getting behind the kitchen upstand
  • Failed sealant on the screen profile
  • Two layers of silicone, both failing

For landlords with property near Great Missenden station, mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets.

What your quote should include

  • What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
  • What guarantee comes with the work
  • Whether VAT is included
  • Who turns up on the day

Ballinger Common homes and their sealant

Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.

In the older streets around St Mary's, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. Managing a site like Lee Common Church of England School? Then its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

Keeping the joints in good condition

Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:

  • Let new sealant cure fully before it gets wet
  • Dry worktop joints after washing up
  • Dry the bead with a towel now and then
  • Keep bottles off the sealant line

Good ventilation does more than any cleaner. Use the fan, or open a window, while you bathe and for a while afterwards, so the bead dries out between uses.

Each shower pushes a little more water through a failed joint. Over time that water reaches floors, walls and ceilings. Early resealing closes the gap before damage is done.

Why it’s worth doing now in Ballinger Common

A clean new bead makes a room look cared for, which matters if you’re letting a property or selling it. Lumpy sealant with smears on the tiles has the opposite effect. Around Ballinger Common, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.

What it costs depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts.

Why us?

  • Anti-fungal silicone where joints get wet
  • ARBOMaster approved applicator
  • Trusted Arbo and Everbuild sealants
  • We’re fully insured

Different surfaces, different methods

Baths

Baths move more than any other fitting, so it’s filled with water before the bead goes on. That way the joint is laid with the bath at its heaviest.

Sinks & splashbacks

Where a splashback meets the worktop, there’s a joint that catches every splash. We renew it in clear, white or a matched colour.

What affects the cost of bathroom resealing

The price is agreed before any work begins. It takes into account:

  • Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
  • Any working-time requirements on site
  • The type of sealant required
  • How many rooms, windows or areas are involved

Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.

Asking for a quote

To make quoting easier, please include:

  • The rough size of the job
  • Whether it’s a home or a business
  • Pictures of the joints, sent by email
  • What’s wrong with the joints now
