Problem with your baths, showers and worktops in Bloxham? We cut out the old, prepare the joints and apply the right sealant, with a 12-month guarantee.

About our bathroom resealing in Bloxham
Sealant is the soft line between a bath, shower or worktop and the wall. Once it cracks or goes mouldy, water starts to find its way through into walls, panels and floors. Every trace of the old sealant is taken out and replaced with anti-fungal sanitary silicone. If you are dealing with cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone and failed sealant on the screen profile, we can put it right, on sinks & splashbacks, baths and basins & vanity units alike.
Even in a smaller place like Bloxham, bathrooms and kitchens see heavy daily use. Whether it’s a cottage bathroom or a newer en suite, the approach is the same: all the old material out, the joint cleaned and dried, then new sealant or grout.
Big or small, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee.

DIY versus a professional finish
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
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.
Signs you need bathroom resealing in Bloxham
Older sealant shrinks and hardens. Along worktops it tends to pull back from the wall, leaving a thin gap where water and food collect. Hot pans and harsh cleaners don’t help.
The problems people usually mention when they call include:
- Water getting behind the bath panel
- Splits where the tray meets the wall
- Black spots spreading through the bead
- Cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone
If you look after a building such as Bloxham Church of England Primary School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

What happens on the day
You do not need to clear the whole room or building, only the area right around the joints. Everything nearby is protected, and the work takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom for a typical job. A visit to Bloxham is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- We protect the area and cut out all of the old sealant.
- The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
- We let it dry fully and fill the bath with water before sealing.
- We apply anti-fungal sanitary silicone in one even bead and tool it neatly.
- We clear away and tell you when it can get wet, generally after around 24 hours.
How to prepare
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

Advice
Different surfaces, different methods
Kitchen worktops & upstands
The joint between worktop and wall takes splashes, crumbs and cleaning sprays. The new bead is colour-matched where it shows.
Sinks & splashbacks
The edge of an inset sink is a common place for water to get under the worktop. Where the sealant around the visible edge has failed, we renew it.

Can landlords and businesses book you?

Will there be a smell?
It depends on the product. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little.
Is white the only colour available?
White, clear and a range of colours are available. On a worktop we colour-match where the joint shows.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Open a window or run the fan so the room dries
- Squeegee the walls and tray after use
- Dry worktop joints after washing up
- Keep bottles off the sealant line
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.
Small signs come before a leak: a corner lifting, a gap behind the bead, a dark line under the silicone or a damp patch on the ceiling below. If you spot one, it’s time to reseal.
Bathrooms and kitchens in Bloxham
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.
In the older streets around Church of St Mary, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant. Letting a property close to Banbury station? Then fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay.

What happens if it’s left?
Leaving a split or mouldy bead only stores up trouble. Water that gets behind a bath soaks into the floor, the panel and sometimes the ceiling below, and that is a far bigger job than a reseal. In a smaller place like Bloxham, wherever a wall is exposed, a failed outside joint is a real source of damp. Inside, a split seal lets water into floors and panels just as it would anywhere.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, because water and mould keep working on it. If you are unsure, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.
