Bathroom resealing for Broxbourne homes and businesses

The process

The work is kept neat and contained to the joints we’re treating, so you can carry on as normal. The job generally takes a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen, and we explain the cure time before we leave. In a smaller place like Broxbourne, parking is seldom the issue; lanes, gates and long drives are worth mentioning. For outside work, side access and the height of the joints help us plan.

  1. Protection goes down around the bath, shower or worktop.
  2. We cut away the old sealant and clean off what’s left.
  3. Mould is treated, then the joint is left to dry thoroughly.
  4. Any bath is filled with water, then we lay a bead of anti-fungal silicone in white, clear or a matching colour.
  5. We finish the joint, clear up and tell you how long to leave it before it gets wet.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
  • Move anything stored near the joints
  • Mention if the joints have been sealed before

Advice

About our bathroom resealing in Broxbourne

We fill the bath before sealing it. A full bath sits slightly lower than an empty one, so the bead is not stretched the first time someone gets in. It’s a small step that rushed reseals tend to skip. If you have a reseal done over the top of the old bead and sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away, we can put it right, whatever the surface.

Homes around Broxbourne 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.

You get a 12-month guarantee, the same in Broxbourne as everywhere else we work.

How the job changes by surface

Shower trays & enclosures

Shower trays are sealed to the wall, and enclosures are sealed to the tray and tiles. Both take water every day, so both are resealed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone.

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.

What we’re called out for in Broxbourne

Older sealant shrinks and hardens. In kitchens it often shrinks away from the back edge, opening a hairline gap that lets water and crumbs in. Hot pans and harsh cleaners don’t help.

The problems people generally mention when they call include:

  • Mouldy sealant that has gone black
  • Cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone
  • Gaps between the worktop and the wall
  • A messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal

Homes close to Church of St Augustine include some older properties, and walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

What your quote should include

  • What preparation is included
  • Whether they’re fully insured
  • What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
  • What product goes in the joint

Choosing a sealant specialist

What affects the cost of bathroom resealing

Every job gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • Mould in or behind the old joints
  • The old material and how stubborn it is
  • When we can work, for business premises
  • The type of sealant required

The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That is why we ask about the job first and send you a clear quote before we start.

Asking for a quote

Photos help, but a description is a good start. Try to tell us:

  • A few pictures by email, if you can
  • What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
  • Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
  • If someone has resealed it before

We quote each job on its own, so start by telling us what you need. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details, and pictures are welcome.

Should I try it myself first?

A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly.

A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

Bathroom resealing in Broxbourne: local notes

Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.

Schools such as Sheredes Primary School are buildings too, and its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. For landlords with property near Broxbourne station, mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets.

Why act early in Broxbourne

Leaving a split or mouldy bead only stores up trouble. Water that gets behind a bath soaks into the floor, the panel and sometimes the ceiling below, and that’s a far bigger job than a reseal. Around Broxbourne, water from a failed joint in an older home can soak into timber and plaster, and that is a much bigger job than renewing the sealant.

Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.

Why Broxbourne customers choose us

  • Experience in homes, commercial sites and hotels
  • A choice of colours where the product allows
  • Colour agreed with you before we start
  • Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas

What sealant work can’t fix

Sealant is not the answer to every problem, and we’ll tell you before work begins. Sealant won’t put right:

  • Water coming from the plumbing rather than the joint
  • A cracked shower tray or bath (that needs repair or replacement)
  • Tiles that have come away from the wall

Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll tell you honestly.
