Bathroom resealing in Boars Hill
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 into walls, panels and floors. Every trace of the old sealant is taken out and replaced with anti-fungal sanitary silicone. We are often asked to deal with failed sealant on the screen profile and sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away, on shower trays & enclosures, sinks & splashbacks and wet rooms.
Around Boars Hill, it’s 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.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

Why act early in Boars Hill
Dealing with sealant early is a short job: the work takes a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers. Left until water gets through, the job can grow to lifting panels, drying out and decorating. Older cottages and farmhouses around Boars Hill can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs, plus any working-time requirements on site. Call for a quick quote and we’ll explain what it covers.

Bathroom resealing around Boars Hill
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
In the older streets around Church of St Peter, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them. If you let a flat or house near Oxford station, fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Wootton St Peter's Church of England Primary School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

How it works
When we arrive, we look over the joints with you first, so you know exactly what we are doing. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work begins. Most jobs take a couple of hours for a single bath or shower. In a small place like Boars Hill, access is generally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- First the area is protected and every bit of old sealant removed.
- The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
- Once it’s dry, any bath is filled so the bead is laid with it at its heaviest.
- We apply anti-fungal sanitary silicone in one even bead and tool it neatly.
- We tidy up and give you the cure time, normally around 24 hours.
Before we arrive
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

Advice
DIY versus a professional finish
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 fails, we can still redo it.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
Aftercare tips
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Give the silicone its full cure time
- Don’t leave water standing on kitchen joints
- Check the joints every few months for splits or lifting
- Stick to a soft cloth and a mild cleaner
Good ventilation does more than any cleaner. Run the extractor fan during and after a shower, so the bead dries out between uses.
Mould that starts as a few spots spreads through the bead. When it has grown right through, it rarely cleans out, and nearby grout often goes the same way. Replacing the sealant early keeps the job small.

What affects the quote in Boars Hill
There’s no set price list, because no two jobs are the same. What we look at:
- The amount of work
- Any working-time requirements on site
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- The product the joint needs
The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask a few questions first and give you a clear quote before work begins.
Helping us quote
Photos help, but a description is a good start. Try to tell us:
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- Whether it has been sealed before
- What’s wrong with the joints now
Getting a quote is simple: tell us what needs doing and where, and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help us understand the job, and we’ll come back to you with a quote.
Honest limits
We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what sealant cannot put right:
- A leaking waste, trap or valve
- A tray that rocks until it’s re-bedded
- Cracked or missing grout between tiles (that is regrouting)
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will tell you honestly before you book.
