Bathroom resealing near Cripp's Corner

What we do, step by step

Our applicators work methodically: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. Typically it takes two to three hours for a typical bath, depending on how much old sealant there is and we leave things clean and tidy. Somewhere like Cripp's Corner needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.

  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. Baths are filled first, then anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied in a colour to suit.
  5. The joint is finished neatly and we explain when it can get wet.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
  • Mention any parking rules near the property

Advice

About our bathroom resealing in Cripp's Corner

It is not only bathrooms. The joint between worktop and wall, the edge of the sink and the bottom of the splashback all take splashes every 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. Common call-outs are for mouldy sealant that has gone black and a bead that has pulled away from the tiles, on wet rooms, kitchen worktops & upstands and basins & vanity units.

Somewhere as small as Cripp's Corner, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Older walls and timber floors can move a little, and cracked grout and split sealant are often the first signs.

All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, in Cripp's Corner and everywhere else we cover.

Questions from Cripp's Corner

Can you do bathroom resealing in Cripp's Corner?

Yes, Cripp's Corner is within the area we cover. Our work covers 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 send you a clear quote.

I let a flat near Robertsbridge station. Can you help?

Yes, we work for landlords and agents. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us about the property, and we’ll send you a clear quote.

What do you put in the joint?

The product depends on the job: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.

Do you do kitchens as well as bathrooms?

Yes, often alongside a bathroom. Where it’s needed by the sink, we use a food-safe sealant.

Is it worth trying it myself?

It depends on the job. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional.

Does someone need to be in?

It depends on the job. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in, while outside work can sometimes be arranged differently.

Is it messy?

Not at all. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.

Can you get rid of the black mould in my sealant?

Yes. The old sealant comes out, the mould is treated, and we reseal with anti-fungal sanitary silicone.

Cripp's Corner homes and their sealant

Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.

Homes close to St Marks Staplecross include some older properties, and older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. Managing a site like Staplecross Methodist Primary School? Then we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

What affects the cost of bathroom resealing

Call for a quick quote. The main things that affect it are:

  • Working hours on commercial sites
  • The number of rooms or windows
  • The number and length of the joints
  • Any mould that needs treating

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 we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

Helping us quote

When you call or email, it’s useful to know:

  • Any access issues, like height or stairs
  • The rough size of the job
  • Whether it has been sealed before
  • What’s wrong with the joints now

It all starts with a short chat. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is. When it suits you, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

What the job involves on each surface

Sinks & splashbacks

The edge of an inset sink is a common place for water to get under the worktop. Where the sealant around the visible edge has failed, we renew it.

Baths

Acrylic baths give a little under load, and even steel and cast iron baths settle slightly when full. Filling the bath first allows for that movement.

How to look after the new joints

Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:

  • Use gentle cleaners on the silicone
  • Wait for the cure time we give you
  • Open a window or run the fan so the room dries
  • Wipe up water along the back of the worktop

Give the silicone time to cure before it gets wet, following the cure time we give you. Once it’s cured, wiping it down after use keeps it looking new.

There’s no need to wait for a full refurbishment. Sealant is a maintenance item, like the paint on a window frame, and renewing it as soon as it fails protects everything around it.

When to call us in Cripp's Corner

A bath shifts a little every time it’s filled and emptied. Acrylic in particular gives slightly under the weight of water and a person, while a poorly supported tray can shift underfoot. That movement works at the bead until it splits or peels away.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Smears of silicone across the tiles
  • Gaps where the bath or tray has moved
  • Failed sealant on the screen profile
  • Shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop

For landlords with property near Robertsbridge station, a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for.

Before booking anyone

  • Who turns up on the day
  • How the joint is cleaned and prepared
  • How long the guarantee is
  • When the joint can take water or movement

Choosing a sealant specialist

When something else is needed

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • A tray that rocks until it’s re-bedded
  • A tray or bath that’s cracked through
  • Damage behind the tiles that needs a tiler

If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will say what we think before you book.

Joints and surfaces we work on

  • Sinks & splashbacks
  • Wet rooms
  • Kitchen worktops & upstands
  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Baths
  • Basins & vanity units

Why deal with it now?

Most of the work in a good reseal happens before any silicone goes on: cutting out every trace of the old bead, cleaning, treating mould and letting the joint dry. Without that preparation, the new bead will not last. In a small place like Cripp's Corner, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

Doing several joints on one visit generally makes better use of the time than several visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. You’ll get one clear quote for the whole job.
