Quotes for bathroom resealing in Bodicote

We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:

  • Access and height
  • How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
  • The size of the job
  • The number of rooms or windows

Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

Helping us quote

To make quoting easier, let us know:

  • If someone has resealed it before
  • The type of property
  • How we’d reach the joints
  • The rough size of the job

The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and add photos by email if you can.

Bathroom resealing for homes and businesses in Bodicote

Resealing is a small job that makes a big difference. Black, patchy sealant makes clean tiles look tired, and a neat new joint puts that right in a short visit. It also seals the gaps that let water behind the bath. We work on basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms, and people most often call us about water getting behind the kitchen upstand and water escaping at the shower enclosure.

Homes around Bodicote range from older cottages to more recent houses. Older homes can move a little with the seasons, which is hard on tired sealant and rigid grout.

A 12-month guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

How to look after the new joints

A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:

  • Run the extractor fan during and after every shower
  • Wipe up water along the back of the worktop
  • Wait for the cure time we give you
  • Keep an eye on the corners, where splits start

Wipe up standing water along the worktop joint and keep hot pans away from the silicone. The drier the joint stays, the longer it lasts.

Worktop joints fail quietly. Splashes run behind the back edge and soak into the worktop, and the board underneath can swell. Resealing before that happens protects the worktop.

When to call us in Bodicote

Silicone doesn’t last for ever. Daily water, heat and cleaning products take their toll over the years, so its life depends on how the room is used, cleaned and aired.

The most common problems we see are:

  • Water escaping at the shower enclosure
  • Mouldy sealant that has gone black
  • Two layers of silicone, both failing
  • A bead that has pulled away from the tiles

For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Longford Park Primary School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

Our hiring checklist

Leave it or put it right?

Mould removers can fade the surface of a stained bead, but mould that has grown into the sealant tends to return. The lasting answer is to remove the bead and start again. Homes in smaller places like Bodicote can face more weather, and failed outside joints let damp into walls. Indoors, a failed seal lets water into floors and panels as it would anywhere.

Combining jobs into one visit normally makes better use of the time than several visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We will send you a clear quote for the lot.

The process

We work through the job in order: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. Typically it takes a couple of hours for a single bath or shower, and the area is left clean. Parking around Bodicote is generally easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. For outside work, side access and the height of the joints help us plan.

  1. First, each joint is checked for movement and signs of water.
  2. Every trace of the old bead is removed, including the thin smear 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. The bead is tooled smooth and you are told the cure time, usually around 24 hours.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the joints have been sealed before
  • Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
  • Clear the area around the work

  • Cracked or missing grout between tiles (that’s regrouting)

Surface by surface

Baths

A bath shifts slightly every time it’s filled, so it’s filled with water before the bead goes on. The joint is then laid with the bath at its lowest point and is not stretched when it’s used.

Basins & vanity units

Basins take less water than showers, but the joint behind them is splashed every day. Old sealant there often goes black at the corners, so it’s cut out and renewed just like a bath joint.
