Bathroom resealing for homes and businesses in Biggin

The bead of silicone around a bath, tray or worktop is what keeps water out of the gaps. Once it cracks or goes mouldy, water starts to find its way through and into the wall or floor. Our team cut the old bead out completely and lay a new one in anti-fungal sanitary silicone. If you have water escaping at the shower enclosure and water getting behind the bath panel, we can help, on kitchen worktops & upstands, baths and wet rooms alike.

Homes around Biggin are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.

Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, whatever its size.

Common questions in Biggin

Is Biggin in your area for bathroom resealing?

Yes, Biggin is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job.

Is Biggin within the area you cover?

Yes, Biggin is covered. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work in homes, commercial premises and hotels, and we are fully insured.

Can mouldy silicone be sorted out?

Yes. Once mould has grown into the silicone, it usually cannot be cleaned out for good, so the bead comes out, the joint is treated and new anti-fungal silicone goes in.

How long does a bath or shower reseal take?

A single bath or shower takes about a couple of hours, old sealant removal included. A whole bathroom plus the kitchen may take most of the day.

Where do you work from?

Our base is in Crawley, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.

Can you work on commercial sites?

Yes, regularly. Larger jobs can be planned room by room or area by area.

Can you do several jobs on one visit?

Yes, we can. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.

How it works

Once we’re on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. Most jobs then take a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers. In a small place like Biggin, access is generally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. Protection goes down around the bath, shower or worktop.
  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

  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
  • Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

Bathroom resealing around Biggin

Biggin is close to the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.

If you look after a building such as Tilbury Pioneer Academy, 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. In the older streets around Church of St Mary, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

Biggin is about 2 miles east of Grays, in Thurrock. For bathroom resealing in and around Biggin, please call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email for a quick quote.

Surface by surface

Baths

A bath shifts slightly every time it’s filled, so it’s filled with water before the bead goes on. The joint is then laid with the bath at its lowest point.

Shower trays & enclosures

If a tray moves underfoot, new silicone won’t last. We check for movement before we reseal, and if the tray needs refixing, we’ll say so.

How to look after the new joints

Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:

  • Keep the fan on for a while after bathing
  • Keep bottles off the sealant line
  • Look for lifting corners and small gaps now and then
  • Stick to a soft cloth and a mild cleaner

Do not stand bottles along the bead, because they trap water against the silicone. Squeegeeing the walls and tray after use helps the joint dry.

Each shower pushes a little more water through a failed joint. Left alone, it soaks into the floor, the wall behind the tiles or the ceiling below. Resealing early stops it.

Why it’s worth doing now in Biggin

Most of the work in a good reseal happens before any silicone goes on: removing all the old sealant, degreasing the joint, treating mould and drying it properly. Skip those steps and even the best silicone fails early. Around Biggin, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.

Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs, plus any working-time requirements on site. Call for a quick quote and we will go through it with you.

What sealant work can’t fix

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what sealant can’t fix:

  • A leaking waste, trap or valve
  • Failed grout lines across the wall
  • Cracks in the tray itself rather than the joint

If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll say what we think before you book.

What we seal

  • Baths
  • Wet rooms
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Kitchen worktops & upstands
  • Sinks & splashbacks
  • Shower trays & enclosures

Do you need bathroom resealing in Biggin?

Silicone needs a clean, dry surface without any grease to stick to. Soap residue, oils and leftover silicone film all get in the way, and a joint that looked fine soon begins to come away.

It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:

  • Gaps where the bath or tray has moved
  • Leaks into the floor or ceiling below
  • A reseal done over the top of the old bead
  • Gaps between the worktop and the wall

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

Before booking anyone

  • How long to leave it before use
  • What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
  • What insurance they hold
  • Which sealant they’ll use, and why
