Aftercare tips

Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:

  • Use gentle cleaners on the silicone
  • Wipe up water along the back of the worktop
  • Keep the fan on for a while after bathing
  • Keep bottles off the sealant line

Mould needs damp, so keep the room aired. Use the fan, or open a window, while you bathe and for a while afterwards, so the silicone gets a chance to dry.

Mould that starts as a few spots spreads through the bead. When it has grown right through, it rarely cleans out. Replacing the sealant early keeps the job small.

Bathroom resealing in Catherington

A fresh bead of silicone changes how a bathroom looks more than most people expect. Mouldy silicone makes even a new bathroom look neglected, and a neat new joint puts that right in a short visit. Just as important, it closes the gaps water would otherwise get through. If you are dealing with gaps where the bath or tray has moved and new sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting, we can put it right, on baths, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms alike.

Being in a small place like Catherington makes no difference to the job itself: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. Once we are there, the bathroom or kitchen gets the same care as anywhere else.

Every job comes with a 12-month guarantee.

What affects the quote in Catherington

We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:

  • Mould in or behind the old joints
  • Whether the work is at height
  • How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
  • When we can work, for business premises

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 the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

What to tell us for a quote

What to tell us when you ask for a quote:

  • If someone has resealed it before
  • Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
  • Where the job is, and your postcode
  • If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel

For a quick quote, get us on the phone, or email us if that is easier. Describe what needs sealing and we’ll explain what’s involved.

How long does it take to reseal a bath or shower?

How do I get a quote for bathroom resealing in Catherington?

Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Ask us for a quote and we will talk you through it.

Can new silicone go straight over the old?

No. Fresh silicone can’t stick to the old bead, so it peels away and hides mould and water. We always take the old sealant out completely.

Bathroom resealing in Catherington: local notes

Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.

If you live in an older home near Church of All Saints, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. Rented homes near Rowlands Castle station change hands often, and fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay.

What happens if it’s left?

A quick bead over the top of the old one might look better for a while, but it can’t stick to what’s underneath. It lifts, traps water and grows mould behind it, so the next person has twice as much to remove. Older cottages and farmhouses around Catherington can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.

The process

Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and tell you how long to leave it. The visit itself usually takes a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen, depending on the size of the job. In a small place like Catherington, access is usually the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. First the area is protected and every bit of old sealant removed, including the film left on the tiles.
  2. We clean and degrease the joint and treat any mould.
  3. Once it’s dry, any bath is filled so the bead is laid with it at its heaviest.
  4. A single bead of anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied and tooled smooth.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can get wet, generally after around 24 hours.

Before we arrive

  • On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
  • Tell us about any water getting in
  • Mention any parking rules near the property

Different surfaces, different methods

Basins & vanity units

Vanity units have long, worktop-style joints against the wall. Water that gets behind can damage the unit, so the joint is sealed in one unbroken line.

Kitchen worktops & upstands

Kitchen joints need more degreasing than bathroom ones, because cooking grease stops sealant bonding. Proper degreasing is what helps the new joint last.

Common problems we fix in Catherington

Mould is the reason many people want their sealant replaced. Steamy rooms that do not dry out keep the silicone damp for hours, and mould that has grown into the silicone generally will not clean off.

It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:

  • A messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal
  • A bead that has pulled away from the tiles
  • Damp behind the bath or under the tray
  • Water escaping at the shower enclosure

Schools such as Catherington Church of England Infant School are buildings too, and 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.

Before booking anyone
