How we handle bathroom resealing in Braughing
The secret of a lasting bead is the preparation. Every bit of old silicone comes out, down to the thin film left on the tiles, after which the joint is degreased and any mould treated. Only once it’s dry does the new bead go on. We work on sinks & splashbacks, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & upstands, and common reasons people get in touch are damp behind the bath or under the tray and a joint torn by a bath that flexes.
Around Braughing, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

Surface by surface
Kitchen worktops & upstands
The joint between worktop and wall takes splashes, crumbs and cleaning sprays. We seal them in a colour that suits the worktop, so the line does not stand out.
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.
Braughing homes and their sealant
Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
Homes close to Parish Church of St Mary the Virgin include some older properties, and walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

What we do, step by step
All our tools and materials come with us in the van. After a quick look at the joints together, we protect the area and start. Most jobs take a couple of hours for a single bath or shower. In a small place like Braughing, access is usually the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We start by protecting the area and stripping out the old bead, including the film left on the tiles.
- 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.
- A single bead of anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied and tooled smooth.
- We tidy up and give you the cure time, generally around 24 hours.
Before we arrive
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Mention any tricky access
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before

Related advice
Do you need bathroom resealing in Braughing?
A bath shifts a little every time it’s filled and emptied. Acrylic in particular gives slightly under the weight of water and a person, while a poorly supported tray can shift underfoot. Over time the joint tears or pulls away from the tile.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- New sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting
- A joint torn by a bath that flexes
- Water escaping at the shower enclosure
- Mouldy sealant that has gone black
Schools such as Jenyns First School and Nursery are buildings too, and its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

What affects the cost of bathroom resealing
There’s no set price list, because jobs vary so much. The quote depends on:
- The number and length of the joints
- Which sealant suits the joint
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- Working hours on commercial sites
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.
Asking for a quote
You do not need to know the technical terms. It helps if you can tell us:
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- Roughly how big the job is
There’s no standard price list. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To get started, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
Why deal with it now?
Sorting it now is quick: the work takes two to three hours for a typical bath, depending on how much old sealant there is. Left until water gets through, the job can grow to lifting panels, drying out and decorating. Around Braughing, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part.
