Do you need bathroom resealing in Birchett's Green?
Plenty of failed sealant has been laid over the top of older sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, so it lifts, lets water in and traps mould underneath.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- A reseal done over the top of the old bead
- Cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone
- Mouldy sealant that has gone black
- Smears of silicone across the tiles
Managing a site like Uplands Community College? Then we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

What the job involves on each surface
Basins & vanity units
Vanity units have long, worktop-style joints against the wall. Water that gets behind can damage the unit, so the joint is sealed in one unbroken line.
Baths
The long joint down the side of a bath is where most leaks start, particularly where there’s a shower over the bath. We finish it with a single, even bead of anti-fungal silicone.
How the visit works
When we arrive, we start by going over the job with you. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work begins. Most jobs take a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen. Somewhere like Birchett's Green 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.
- We cover the area around the joints we are working on.
- We cut away the old sealant and clean off what’s left.
- Mould is treated, then the joint is left to dry thoroughly.
- Any bath is filled with water, then we lay a bead of anti-fungal silicone in white, clear or a matching colour.
- We finish the joint, clear up and tell you how long to leave it before it gets wet.
Before we arrive
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Tell us about any water getting in

Advice
How we quote for bathroom resealing
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:
- Any working-time requirements on site
- The product the joint needs
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- How much there is to do
The cost depends on the amount of work, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts.
Asking for a quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:
- The type of property
- Whether it has been sealed before
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- Where the property is
It all starts with a short chat. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job, and we will explain how we’d tackle it. Whenever you are ready, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
Questions from Birchett's Green
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Stonegate station?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us about the property, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Is Birchett's Green within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Can you just seal over the old silicone?
No. It’s a common reason for reseals failing. The old joint is stripped, cleaned and resealed from scratch.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. We’ve worked for hotels, offices and other businesses, and we’re fully insured.
Do the sealants smell?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure. Ventilation helps.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Always. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, and it’s something we never do.
What information do you need?
The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. If you can, email a few photos.
Can mouldy silicone be sorted out?
Yes. The old sealant comes out, the mould is treated, and we reseal with anti-fungal sanitary silicone.
Leave it or put it right?
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. Without that preparation, the new bead will not last. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Birchett's Green, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed. Ask us for a quote and we will explain what it covers.

Keeping the joints in good condition
A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:
- Clean with a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth
- Let new sealant cure fully before it gets wet
- Avoid abrasive pads on the sealant
- Keep the fan on for a while after bathing
Wipe up standing water along the worktop joint and keep hot pans away from the silicone. A dry joint lasts longer.
Watch for the early signs: lifting ends, gaps, dark shadows under the bead or a stain downstairs. If you spot one, it’s time to reseal.
Bathrooms and kitchens in Birchett's Green
Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
For an older house near a landmark such as Shover's Green Baptist Chapel, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. Letting a property close to Stonegate station? Then fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay.
