How we handle bathroom resealing in Boarhunt
It is not only bathrooms. Worktop upstands, sink edges and splashback joints get wet every single day, and water behind a laminate worktop can make it swell. We reseal them with a kitchen-suitable silicone, matched to the worktop where it’s on show. Typical jobs include a bead that has pulled away from the tiles and water escaping at the shower enclosure, on shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & upstands and basins & vanity units.
Somewhere as small as Boarhunt, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Older walls and timber floors can move a little, and cracked grout and split sealant are often the first signs.
Our work is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

Do you need bathroom resealing in Boarhunt?
Plenty of failed sealant has been laid over the top of older sealant. Fresh silicone cannot grip the old bead underneath, so it peels, leaks and hides mould behind it.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- A joint torn by a bath that flexes
- Black mould in the silicone that will not clean off
- Cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone
- Shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop
For landlords with property near Portchester station, mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets.

The process
There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Point us to the joints and we’ll get on with it. The work itself takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom, including the tidy-up. In a small place like Boarhunt, access is normally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- Protection goes down around the bath, shower or worktop.
- Old sealant is sliced away and the residue removed.
- Mould is treated, then the joint is left to dry thoroughly.
- Baths are filled first, then anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied in a colour to suit.
- We finish the joint, clear up and tell you how long to leave it before it gets wet.
Before we arrive
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Mention any tricky access
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before

Advice
Bathrooms and kitchens in Boarhunt
Boarhunt is within about 2 miles of the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, which wears sealant and grout out faster than in a quiet home. Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up 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 Church of St Nicholas, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them. Schools such as Cams Hill School are buildings too, and we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

Different surfaces, different methods
Sinks & splashbacks
Water getting under the rim of an inset sink can soak the worktop. Where the sealant around the visible edge has failed, we renew it.
Baths
The long joint down the side of a bath is where most leaks start, especially under a shower. We finish it with a single, even bead of anti-fungal silicone.
Boarhunt questions
Do you work for landlords with property near Portchester station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us about the property, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Is Boarhunt within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We are approved under the ARBOMaster scheme, the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants.
How long does the new silicone need before I use the shower?
The surface skins over fairly quickly, but the bead needs longer to cure right through. Keep water off it for around 24 hours, or follow the cure time we give you.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. More than one area can be quoted together.
What do you need from me for a quote?
The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. If you can, email a few pictures.
Are you insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured for domestic and commercial work.
Is it worth trying it myself?
It depends on the job. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs.
Should I try it myself first?
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.

How we quote for bathroom resealing
The price is agreed before any work begins. It takes into account:
- The type of sealant required
- The size of the job
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- How easy the joints are to reach
A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
What we need to know
To make quoting easier, let us know:
- Roughly how big the job is
- Where the property is
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
For a quote, call 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us where the job is and what the problem looks like. You’ll have a clear quote before work begins.
Why deal with it now?
Leaving a split or mouldy bead only stores up trouble. Once water is behind the bath, it can reach floorboards, panels and the ceiling underneath, turning a small job into a building repair. Older cottages and farmhouses around Boarhunt can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You will know the price before we begin.
