About our bathroom resealing in Bendish

Before a bath is sealed, it’s filled with water. A full bath sits slightly lower than an empty one, so the bead is not stretched the first time someone gets in. Quick jobs often leave it out, and it makes a real difference. We work on sinks & splashbacks, kitchen worktops & upstands and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people get in touch are water getting behind the kitchen upstand and black spots spreading through the bead.

In a village or hamlet like Bendish, homes are often older cottages and farmhouses alongside a few newer houses. Movement in older walls and floors tends to show first as cracked grout or split sealant.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our 12-month guarantee in Bendish and across Hertfordshire.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Tell us the address, the job and how access works and we will give you a quote.

Should I try it myself first?

Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.

A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.

When it is not the sealant

A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:

  • Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • A bath or tray that moves because it isn’t properly supported
  • Failed grout lines across the wall

If you’re not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What bathroom resealing looks like in Bendish

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.

If you look after a building such as Breachwood Green Junior Mixed and Infant School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

Why deal with it now?

You do not need a new bathroom because the sealant looks bad. A new bead often brings the whole room back. If we find a deeper problem, you’ll hear it from us. Older cottages and farmhouses around Bendish can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.

What it costs depends on how much there is to do, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. You will have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

Take a look at what affects the cost or what customers say.

How it works

Most of a good job is in the preparation, and we don’t rush it. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. All told, the work takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom. Somewhere as small as Bendish, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. First, each joint is checked for movement and signs of water.
  2. The old silicone is cut out completely, along with the film it leaves on the tiles.
  3. Joints are degreased and any mould is treated.
  4. With the joint dry, and any bath loaded with water, a single bead of anti-fungal silicone is applied.
  5. The bead is tooled smooth and you are told the cure time, generally around 24 hours.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking restrictions
  • Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
  • Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

What we are called out for in Bendish

No sealant lasts indefinitely. Every shower, every splash and every wipe with a cleaner slowly wear it down, and how long it lasts comes down to use, cleaning and ventilation.

The problems people usually mention when they call are:

  • Sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away
  • Gaps where the bath or tray has moved
  • Black spots spreading through the bead
  • Leaks into the floor or ceiling below

Letting a property close to Luton Airport Parkway station? Then a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for.
