About our bathroom resealing in Calcot
With over 20 years in the trade, we reseal baths, showers and kitchens in homes across Calcot. We are ARBOMaster approved and fully insured, and the work comes with a 12-month guarantee. We work on sinks & splashbacks, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & upstands, and people most often call us about cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone and a messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal.
Homes around Calcot 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.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep bottles off the sealant line
- Keep an eye on the corners, where splits start
- Squeegee the walls and tray after use
- Dry worktop joints after washing up
Good ventilation does more than any cleaner. Run the extractor fan during and after a shower, so the bead dries out between uses.
A failed kitchen joint is easy to miss. Splashes run behind the back edge and soak into the worktop, and the board underneath can swell. Resealing before that happens protects the worktop.
What we do, step by step
All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so there’s nothing for you to buy. Once we’ve agreed what’s being done, we protect the area and start. It normally takes a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen. For a job in Calcot, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. Outdoor jobs depend on a dry day, since sealant needs a dry surface.
- We protect the area and cut out all of the old sealant, including the film left on the tiles.
- We clean and degrease the joint and treat any mould.
- The joint is left to dry, and baths are filled with water first.
- New anti-fungal silicone goes on in a colour to suit and is tooled to a clean finish.
- Finally we tidy up and explain the cure time before we leave.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

What happens if it’s left?
Running new silicone over the old joint can look tidy for a few weeks, but it won’t bond. Water creeps under it and mould follows, and the next reseal means two layers to cut out. In an older home around Calcot, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the sealant itself.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed. Ask us for a quote and we will explain what it covers.

Signs you need bathroom resealing in Calcot
With age, silicone loses its stretch. Along worktops it tends to pull back from the wall, leaving a thin gap where water and food collect. Heat from the hob and strong sprays speed it along.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone
- Smears of silicone across the tiles
- Two layers of silicone, both failing
- Gaps between the worktop and the wall
If you live in an older home near Church of St Michael, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.
What your quote should include
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- Is VAT in the price?
- What guarantee comes with the work
- Who turns up on the day
What we cannot put right
We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what sealant cannot put right:
- Cracks in the tray itself rather than the joint
- Movement from a bath with loose feet or no proper support
- Cracked or missing grout between tiles (that is regrouting)

Calcot questions
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Theale station?
Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Is Calcot in your area for bathroom resealing?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Calcot is part of that. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We are fully insured.
What should I tell you?
Let us know what needs doing and where. We will ask anything else we need to know.
Can you just seal over the old silicone?
No. New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, so it peels away and hides mould and water. All the old sealant comes out first.
Is white the only colour available?
You are not limited to white: white, clear and colours to suit tiles and worktops. We will talk it through when we quote.
Can you get rid of the black mould in my sealant?
Yes, by replacing the sealant. Cleaning products may lighten it, but the lasting fix is new anti-fungal silicone on a clean, treated joint. Airing the room well helps stop it returning.
What does bathroom resealing cost?
Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Call for a quick quote and we will talk you through it.
