Bathroom resealing in Bladon, done properly

A fresh bead of silicone changes how a bathroom looks more than most people expect. Mouldy silicone makes even a new bathroom look neglected, and a neat new joint puts that right in a short visit. Just as important, it closes the gaps water would otherwise get through. We work on baths, shower trays & enclosures and sinks & splashbacks, and the jobs we see most are splits where the tray meets the wall and water escaping at the shower enclosure.

For a small place like Bladon, bathroom resealing is planned like any other job: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.

Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, large or small.

Bladon: your questions answered

Do you work in hotels near Bladon?

Yes. Hotel and guest-house work is part of what we do. Jobs can be programmed room by room, with out-of-hours working possible to arrange.

Is Bladon within the area you cover?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure your landlord agrees.

Can you just seal over the old silicone?

No. New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, so it peels away and hides mould and water. All the old sealant comes out first.

Can I do it myself?

Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.

What does bathroom resealing cost?

The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Call for a quick quote.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Just list everything you need and we’ll quote it together.

Are you an approved applicator?

Yes. We are approved under the ARBOMaster scheme, the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants.

Do you need bathroom resealing in Bladon?

No sealant lasts indefinitely. Daily water, heat and cleaning products slowly wear it down, and how long it lasts comes down to use, cleaning and ventilation.

The problems people usually mention when they call include:

  • Leaks into the floor or ceiling below
  • A bead that has pulled away from the tiles
  • Shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop
  • New sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting

For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Bladon Church of England Primary School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether all the old sealant comes out first
  • How long the guarantee is
  • How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
  • Who does the work, and how experienced they are

Choosing a sealant specialist

When it isn’t the sealant

In fairness, some problems need a different trade:

  • A cracked shower tray or bath (that needs repair or replacement)
  • Failed grout lines across the wall
  • A leaking waste, trap or valve

Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Bathroom resealing in Bladon: local notes

There are hotels and other places to stay in and around Bladon. As well as homes, we work in hotel bathrooms, where resealing and regrouting can be done room by room. 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 live in an older home near St Martin's Church, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant. Letting a property close to Hanborough station? Then mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets.

What we do, step by step

Most of a good job is in the preparation, and we do not rush it. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. All told, the work takes half a day or less for one room, longer when the kitchen is included. For a village or hamlet like Bladon, 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.

  1. We look at every joint first and check for movement or leaks.
  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. We tool the bead to a neat finish and give you the cure time, normally around 24 hours.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
  • Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

Advice

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents and landlords in Bladon can book us as well as householders. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for before the next move-in.

Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. We can quote for more than one property at once.

Keeping the joints in good condition

Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:

  • Use gentle cleaners on the silicone
  • Keep scourers and sharp tools away from the bead
  • Keep bottles off the sealant line
  • Dry the bead with a towel now and then

Clean the silicone with care: warm soapy water and a soft cloth do the job. Scourers and blades can nick the surface, because a damaged bead gives mould a foothold.

A split bead lets water through every time the bath or shower is used. Left alone, it soaks into the floor, the wall behind the tiles or the ceiling below. Early resealing closes the gap before damage is done.

DIY sealant or a professional job?

If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.

Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.

Different surfaces, different methods

Sinks & splashbacks

Splashbacks in glass, tile or acrylic meet the worktop in a long joint. We renew it in clear, white or a matched colour.

Kitchen worktops & upstands

Kitchen joints need more degreasing than bathroom ones, because cooking grease stops sealant bonding. Proper degreasing is what helps the new joint last.
