- Mould in or behind the old joints
- How easy the joints are to reach
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- The amount of work
Leaving a failed joint usually makes the job bigger, not smaller, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are unsure, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.

Bathroom resealing for homes and businesses in Crown Wood
A shower joint gets soaked every day. Trays, enclosures, screen profiles and wet room floors all need a flexible, waterproof seal. Each gets a bead of anti-fungal sanitary silicone, finished smooth so water drains away rather than collecting. We work on shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & upstands, and people most often call us about sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away and gaps between the worktop and the wall.
In a smaller place like Crown Wood, homes are mostly houses and bungalows rather than flats, from older cottages to newer builds. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do in a big town.
Every job is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Bracknell Forest.

What happens if it’s left?
Dealing with sealant early is a short job: the work takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom. Left until water gets through, the job can grow to lifting panels, drying out and decorating. In a smaller place like Crown Wood, wherever a wall is exposed, a failed outside joint is a real source of damp. Inside, a split seal lets water into floors and panels just as it would anywhere.
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You’ll know the price before we begin.

Questions from Crown Wood
Do you work for landlords with property near Martins Heron station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Do you cover smaller places like Crown Wood?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. We can plan bigger jobs in stages.
Should I try DIY first?
You can, for simple jobs. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. If it doesn’t work out, we can redo it.
Does someone need to be in?
We need access to the joints, so we’ll agree that with you when we book. Indoors, that normally means someone at home.
What sealant do you use?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, picked for each joint. We explain the product when we quote.
Is it messy?
Not at all. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
What colours of sealant can you use?
White, clear and a range of colours are available. Where the joint is on show, we match it to the surface.
What happens on the day
You don’t need to clear the whole room or building before we come, only the area right around the joints. Everything nearby is protected, and the job takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom for a typical job. A visit to Crown Wood is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. Outdoor jobs depend on a dry day, since sealant needs a dry surface.
- We start by protecting the area and stripping out the old bead, including the film left on the tiles.
- Next, the joint is cleaned and any mould is treated.
- Once it’s dry, any bath is filled so the bead is laid with it at its heaviest.
- We apply anti-fungal sanitary silicone in one even bead and tool it neatly.
- We clear away and tell you when it can get wet, normally after around 24 hours.
Before we arrive
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints

Different surfaces, different methods
Basins & vanity units
The back of a basin gets wet every time someone washes. Corners behind basins are where mould tends to start, so it’s cut out and renewed just like a bath joint.
Kitchen worktops & upstands
Kitchen joints need more degreasing than bathroom ones, since cooking leaves a film that stops silicone sticking. Proper degreasing is what helps the new joint last.
For landlords and businesses
Landlords and agents in Crown Wood can book us as well as homeowners. Resealing between tenancies keeps a property looking cared for before the next move-in.
Letting agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the address, the job and how access works and we will give you a quote.
What bathroom resealing looks like in Crown Wood
Crown Wood is part of Bracknell, one of the post-war new towns. Many homes date from the post-war decades, so bathrooms and kitchens may be on their second or third set of sealant. Sealant laid over old sealant never bonds properly, so it all has to come out. Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
For an older house near a landmark such as St Paul, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. Managing a site like Crown Wood Primary School? Then its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. Rented homes near Martins Heron station change hands often, and mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets.

Looking after it afterwards
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Do not let bottles sit on the bead
- Keep the fan on for a while after bathing
- Wipe the sealant dry after showering
- Wait for the cure time we give you
Don’t stand bottles along the bead, as they hold water against it. Squeegeeing the walls and tray after use keeps water from sitting on the joint.
A failed kitchen joint is easy to miss. Water gets behind the upstand and into the edge of a laminate worktop, and the board underneath can swell. A reseal in time can save the worktop.
Should I try it myself first?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
