Bathroom resealing in Brickendon, done properly
A bead that has gone black, split or come away shouldn’t be left until there’s a leak. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a photo of the joints, and we’ll give you a clear quote before any work starts. We work on kitchen worktops & upstands, baths and sinks & splashbacks, and people most often call us about damp behind the bath or under the tray and new sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting.
Somewhere as small as Brickendon, 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.
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.

Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what sealant cannot fix:
- Damage behind the tiles that needs a tiler
- Water coming from the plumbing rather than the joint
- Movement from a bath with loose feet or no proper support

DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
What happens on the day
There’s no need to move everything out, just the space around the work. Everything nearby is protected, and the work takes two to three hours for a typical bath, depending on how much old sealant there is in most cases. Somewhere like Brickendon needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We protect the area and cut out all of the old sealant, including the film left on the tiles.
- Next, the joint is cleaned and any mould is treated.
- 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.
- Finally we tidy up and explain the cure time before we leave.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Move anything stored near the joints

Do you need bathroom resealing in Brickendon?
Silicone needs a clean, dry surface without any grease to stick to. Soap residue, oils and leftover silicone film all get in the way, so a rushed job can start to lift early.
The most common problems we see are:
- Gaps where the bath or tray has moved
- A reseal done over the top of the old bead
- Water getting behind the kitchen upstand
- Mouldy sealant that has gone black
If you live in an older home near Holy Cross & St Alban, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

Questions from Brickendon
Do you cover Brickendon for bathroom resealing?
Yes, Brickendon is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job, and we will send you a clear quote.
Do you work for landlords with property near Bayford station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can go on one quote. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Are you insured?
Yes, we’re fully insured.
Do I have to be there?
We need access to the joints, so we’ll agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
Can I do it myself?
Sometimes. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. If it doesn’t work out, we can redo it.
Do you work for hotels and businesses?
Yes. Commercial and hotel work is a large part of what we do, as well as homes. We can talk about working times when we quote.
Will there be a smell?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure, which fades as it sets. Ventilation helps.
How long does the new silicone need before I use the shower?
After around 24 hours in most cases. You will get the exact cure time before we leave.
What the job involves on each surface
Wet rooms
Wet room floors move slightly as they’re used, so the internal corners need silicone rather than grout. Where grout in a corner has cracked, we can replace it with sealant.
Shower trays & enclosures
Shower trays are sealed to the wall, and enclosures are sealed to the tray and tiles. Both get soaked every time the shower runs, so both are resealed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone.
Why act early in Brickendon
Fresh sealant smartens a bathroom or kitchen with very little disruption, which matters if you’re letting a property or selling it. A smeared, uneven DIY bead does the opposite, and it’s harder to put right later. Older cottages and farmhouses around Brickendon can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
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.
