About our bathroom resealing in Chalgrove
Kitchens need the same care as bathrooms. The joint between worktop and wall, the edge of the sink and the bottom of the splashback get wet every single day, and water that gets into the back edge of a worktop can swell the board. Kitchen joints get a sealant suited to kitchens, colour-matched where it shows. If you are dealing with new sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting and water getting behind the bath panel, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Smaller places like Chalgrove still have plenty of bathrooms that work hard every day. Whether it’s a cottage bathroom or a newer en suite, the approach is the same: old sealant or grout cut out, joints cleaned and dried, and a fresh finish laid.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

Should I try it myself first?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, 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 around Chalgrove
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Mary, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant. If you look after a building such as Chalgrove Community Primary School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

Leave it or put it right?
Fresh sealant smartens a bathroom or kitchen with very little disruption, which matters if you are letting a property or selling it. Lumpy sealant with smears on the tiles has the opposite effect, and it’s harder to put right later. In an older home around Chalgrove, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, and that is a much bigger job than renewing the sealant.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, plus any working-time requirements on site. Call for a quick quote and we’ll go through it with you.

How the visit works
There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The work itself takes a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen, including the tidy-up. For a job in Chalgrove, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- First, each joint is checked for movement and signs of water.
- Every trace of the old bead is removed, including the thin smear on the tiles.
- The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
- With the joint dry, and any bath loaded with water, a single bead of anti-fungal silicone is applied.
- The bead is tooled smooth and you are told the cure time, generally around 24 hours.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules

Advice
Chalgrove questions
Do you cover smaller places like Chalgrove?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Can you do bathroom resealing in Chalgrove?
Yes, Chalgrove is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job, and we will give you a clear quote.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes, regularly. Larger jobs can be planned room by room or area by area.
Will it make a mess?
We keep the work tidy. We protect what’s around the joints, and we clear up when we are done.
Can you reseal around my kitchen sink and worktop?
Yes. The old sealant is cut out and the joint degreased, because cooking grease stops silicone sticking, then a colour-matched bead is laid.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, always, and completely. New silicone does not stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
What does bathroom resealing cost?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. You will get a clear quote before work begins.
How long before the new sealant can get wet?
We give you the cure time before we leave, and it’s normally around 24 hours. Using it sooner can damage the bead.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Chalgrove
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. We can quote for more than one property at once.
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a one-year guarantee.
Different surfaces, different methods
Wet rooms
Not every wet room leak is a sealant problem. We reseal the joints and will tell you if the water seems to be coming from somewhere else.
Sinks & splashbacks
Splashbacks in glass, tile or acrylic meet the worktop in a long joint. It’s resealed in white, clear or a colour to suit.
What affects the quote in Chalgrove
Your quote is based on your job. We look at:
- The number of rooms or windows
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- The product the joint needs
- The size of the job
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You’ll know the price before we begin.
What we need to know
When you call or email, it’s useful to know:
- How we’d reach the joints
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- Roughly how big the job is
- The type of property
There’s no standard price list. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To arrange one, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Water getting in through the grout rather than the sealant
- Water coming from the plumbing rather than the joint
- Damage behind the tiles that needs a tiler
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll tell you honestly.
