Why deal with it now?
Mould removers can fade the surface of a stained bead, but mould that has grown into the sealant tends to return. The lasting answer is to remove the bead and start again. In a smaller place like Chigwell, wherever a wall is exposed, a failed outside joint is a real source of damp. Indoors, a failed seal lets water into floors and panels as it would anywhere.
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That’s why we ask a few questions first.

Bathroom resealing for homes and businesses in Chigwell
Sealant that’s mouldy, cracked or peeling shouldn’t be left until there’s a leak. A photo of the joints helps when you ring 0345 464 0079 or email us, and we’ll give you a clear price before any work starts. Common call-outs are for leaks into the floor or ceiling below and new sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting, on sinks & splashbacks, wet rooms and baths.
Homes around Chigwell range from older cottages to more recent houses. In older homes, walls and floors can move a little more, so the right flexible sealant matters.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee in Chigwell and across Essex.

What happens on the day
All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so there’s nothing for you to buy. After a quick look at the joints together, we protect the area and start. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers. Parking around Chigwell is generally easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. For outside work, side access and the height of the joints help us plan.
- First the area is protected and every bit of old sealant removed.
- The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
- We let it dry fully and fill the bath with water before sealing.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

Landlord and commercial work in Chigwell
We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so the work can be planned room by room around your bookings where we can. We have worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
What we can’t put right
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant won’t put right:
- Failed grout lines across the wall
- Loose or hollow tiles, or failed tanking behind them
- A tray that rocks until it’s re-bedded

Bathrooms and kitchens in Chigwell
Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
If you look after a building such as Limes Farm Infant School and Nursery, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. For landlords with property near Chingford station, fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay.

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference.

Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. ARBOMaster is the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants, and we are part of it.
Do I need to be at home?
We need access to the joints, so we’ll agree that with you when we book. Indoors, that usually means someone at home.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, we can. More than one area can go on one quote.
Do you work for hotels and businesses?
Yes. Commercial and hotel work is a large part of what we do, as well as homes. Working times can be discussed when we quote.
What does bathroom resealing cost?
The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Ask us for a quote.
Should I try DIY first?
That depends on the joint. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional.
How the job changes by surface
Baths
Most bath leaks begin along the long edge, especially under a shower. We finish it with a single, even bead of anti-fungal silicone.
Shower trays & enclosures
The vertical joint where a screen profile meets the wall is a common leak point. It’s resealed along with the tray joints, sealing the side the enclosure’s instructions call for.
What we’re called out for in Chigwell
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. Hot pans and harsh cleaners do not help.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- Black spots spreading through the bead
- New sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting
- Shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop
- Water escaping at the shower enclosure
Homes close to St Winifred include some older properties, and older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.
