About our bathroom resealing in Bidden
The secret of a lasting bead is the preparation. The old sealant is removed to the last smear, then the joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould. Only once it’s dry does the new bead go on. If you’re dealing with mouldy sealant that has gone black and gaps between the worktop and the wall, we can help.
Homes around Bidden are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

What we are called out for in Bidden
No sealant lasts indefinitely. Every shower, every splash and every wipe with a cleaner take their toll over the years, and how long it lasts comes down to use, cleaning and ventilation.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- Black mould in the silicone that will not clean off
- Cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone
- A messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal
- Leaks into the floor or ceiling below

Questions to ask before booking
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- Who turns up on the day
- When the joint can take water or movement
- What insurance they hold

What else we do in Bidden
Why act early in Bidden
Tired sealant isn’t a reason to replace a bath or shower. Replacing the joint is usually all it takes, provided the bath, tray and tiles are in good order. If we find a deeper problem, you will hear it from us. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Bidden, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
Why Bidden customers choose us
- Every job guaranteed for a year

DIY versus a professional finish
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone will not bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
Surface by surface
Wet rooms
Wet room floors move slightly as they’re used, so the corners need a flexible seal, not grout. Where grout in a corner has cracked, we can replace it with sealant.
Kitchen worktops & upstands
Upstands and back edges are cut out, cleaned of grease and resealed, because cooking grease stops sealant bonding. Proper degreasing is what helps the new joint last.
Looking after it afterwards
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Clean with a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth
- Let new sealant cure fully before it gets wet
- Do not let bottles sit on the bead
- Squeegee the walls and tray after use
Mould needs damp, so keep the room aired. Run the extractor fan during and after a shower, so the silicone gets a chance to dry.
Do not wait for a refit to deal with failed sealant. Sealant is a maintenance item, like the paint on a window frame, and renewing it as soon as it fails protects everything around it.
How it works
Once we’re on site, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. Most jobs then take a couple of hours for a single bath or shower. For a village or hamlet like Bidden, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We start by protecting the area and stripping out the old bead, including the film left on the tiles.
- 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.
- Finally we tidy up and explain the cure time before we leave.
Getting ready for the visit
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
