Common questions in Dummer
Do you work for landlords with property near Micheldever station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear price.
Do you cover smaller places like Dummer?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
How long does a bath or shower reseal take?
That depends on the number of joints and the state of the old sealant. Allow a couple of hours for a typical bath or shower.
Do the sealants smell?
It depends on the product. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all, and any smell fades as they cure.
Is it OK to put new sealant on top of the old bead?
No. A bead laid over old silicone soon starts to come away, because silicone does not bond to silicone. Every trace of the old bead is removed first.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done.
Do you do kitchens as well as bathrooms?
Yes. Where it’s needed by the sink, we use a food-safe sealant.
Do I have to be there?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
How we handle bathroom resealing in Dummer
We fill the bath before sealing it. The weight settles the bath to its lowest point, so the bead isn’t stretched the first time someone gets in. It’s a small step that rushed reseals tend to skip. We work on baths, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & upstands, and common reasons people get in touch are damp behind the bath or under the tray and new sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting.
In a village or hamlet like Dummer, homes are often older cottages and farmhouses alongside a few newer houses. Movement in older walls and floors tends to show first as cracked grout or split sealant.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

What else we do in Dummer
Why it’s worth doing now in Dummer
Tired sealant isn’t a reason to replace a bath or shower. A new bead often brings the whole room back, as long as the fittings themselves are sound. If something else is wrong, we’ll tell you. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Dummer, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed. Ask us for a quote and we will go through it with you.

Surface by surface
Wet rooms
In a wet room, the joints between floor and walls take standing water. They get anti-fungal sanitary silicone, and our work is on the visible joints only.
Baths
Baths move more than any other fitting, so it’s filled with water before the bead goes on. That way the joint is laid with the bath at its heaviest and is not torn the first time it’s used.
What happens on the day
We keep the work tidy and contained to the joints we’re treating, so you can get on with your day. Expect the work to take a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers, and we explain the cure time before we leave. Somewhere as small as Dummer, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- Protection goes down around the bath, shower or worktop.
- Old sealant is sliced away and the residue removed.
- We treat any mould and let the joint dry properly.
- Baths are filled first, then anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied in a colour to suit.
- The joint is finished neatly and we explain when it can get wet.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

When it isn’t the sealant
In fairness, there are a few things sealant will not fix:
- A leaking waste, trap or valve
- Cracked or missing grout between tiles (that’s regrouting)
- Movement from a bath with loose feet or no proper support
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll tell you honestly.

Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.
Bathrooms and kitchens in Dummer
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.
In the older streets around Church of All Saints, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

Do you need bathroom resealing in Dummer?
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, and a tray that is not fully bedded can rock. That movement works at the bead until it splits or peels away.
The problems people normally mention when they call are:
- Gaps where the bath or tray has moved
- Water getting behind the kitchen upstand
- A reseal done over the top of the old bead
- Sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away
Letting a property close to Micheldever station? Then mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets.
