Bathroom resealing in Botley, done properly
Kitchens need the same care as bathrooms. Worktop upstands, sink edges and splashback joints all take splashes every day, and water that gets into the back edge of a worktop can swell the board. We reseal them with a kitchen-suitable silicone, matched to the worktop where it’s on show. If you are dealing with two layers of silicone, both failing and smears of silicone across the tiles, we can help, on sinks & splashbacks, baths and wet rooms alike.
Smaller places like Botley still have plenty of bathrooms that work hard every day. Older or newer, every room gets the same approach: all the old material out, the joint cleaned and dried, then new sealant or grout.
You’re covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please call 0345 464 0079 or email us.

When to call us in Botley
A bath shifts a little every time it’s filled and emptied. An acrylic bath flexes under load, while a poorly supported tray can shift underfoot. That movement works at the bead until it splits or peels away.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Gaps where the bath or tray has moved
- Two layers of silicone, both failing
- Mouldy sealant that has gone black
- Shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop
Managing a site like Botley Church of England Controlled Primary School? Then washroom and kitchen sealant there needs the same care as at home, and schools and businesses are part of our work as well as homes.
Questions to ask before booking
- How much experience the applicator has
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
- The length of the guarantee
- When the joint can take water or movement
Can I do it myself?
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.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
What the job involves on each surface
Kitchen worktops & upstands
Laminate worktops swell if water gets into the core. A sound joint along the back edge stops that.
Basins & vanity units
A vanity top has a joint along the wall and sometimes at the sides. If water gets in, the cabinet underneath can swell, so a neat, continuous bead matters.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Don’t let bottles sit on the bead
- Let new sealant cure fully before it gets wet
- Use gentle cleaners on the silicone
- Check the joints every few months for splits or lifting
Treat the new bead gently when you clean: warm soapy water and a soft cloth do the job. Scourers and blades can nick the surface, and a nicked bead lets mould in sooner.
Each shower pushes a little more water through a failed joint. 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.
The process
The work is kept neat and contained to the joints we are treating. The job normally takes half a day or less for one room, longer when the kitchen is included. Parking around Botley is normally 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.
- 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.
- Any bath is filled with water, then we lay a bead of anti-fungal silicone in white, clear or a matching colour.
- The joint is finished neatly and we explain when it can get wet.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the work area

Does someone need to be in?
We need access to the joints, so we’ll agree that with you when we book. Indoors, that usually means someone at home.
Do the sealants smell?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure, but it fades. Opening a window helps.
Can new silicone go straight over the old?
No. A bead laid over old silicone soon starts to come away. Every trace of the old bead is removed first.
Can you get rid of the black mould in my sealant?
Yes. Mould inside the bead rarely cleans out for good, so we cut it out, treat the joint and reseal with anti-fungal silicone.
Are you insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured, and we can confirm the details when we quote.

What bathroom resealing looks like in Botley
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.
Rented homes near Botley station change hands often, and a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for. Homes close to Church of All Saints include some older properties, and walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.
