Bathroom resealing for homes and businesses in Duns Tew
Sealant is the soft line between a bath, shower or worktop and the wall. Once it cracks or goes mouldy, water starts to find its way through. Every trace of the old sealant is taken out and replaced with anti-fungal sanitary silicone. Common call-outs are for damp behind the bath or under the tray and a messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal, across kitchen worktops & upstands, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures.
Being in a small place like Duns Tew makes no difference to the job itself: the journey and access are simply agreed in advance. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.
Our work is backed for twelve months.

Bathroom resealing in Duns Tew: local notes
Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
If you live in an older home near Church of St Mary Magdalene, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.
Duns Tew is about 8 miles south of Banbury, in Oxfordshire. Jobs in Duns Tew get the same care as everywhere else we work: old sealant removed completely, careful preparation and a one-year guarantee.

What we’re called out for in Duns Tew
The wrong product fails fast. Decorators’ caulk and all-purpose sealants aren’t made for constant wetting, so they stain, crack or go mouldy before long. Wet areas call for a sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Failed sealant on the screen profile
- Lumpy, uneven sealant from a DIY attempt
- A reseal done over the top of the old bead
- Mouldy sealant that has gone black
For landlords with property near Heyford station, fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay.
Questions to ask before booking
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
- How long to leave it before use
- What happens if the job turns out different
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
Questions from Duns Tew
Do you work for landlords with property near Heyford station?
Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Is Duns Tew within the area you cover?
Yes, Duns Tew is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, so we never do it.
How long before the new sealant can get wet?
After around 24 hours in most cases. You’ll get the exact cure time before we leave.
Is it worth trying it myself?
That depends on the joint. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional.
Where do you work from?
We’re a Crawley-based firm. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.
What do you put in the joint?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference.
Do you reseal kitchen worktops and sinks too?
Yes, often alongside a bathroom. Next to the sink we use a food-safe product where it’s needed.
What happens if it’s left?
Dealing with sealant early is a short job: it takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom. Wait for a leak and you may be looking at panels off, drying out and redecorating too. Around Duns Tew, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference.

How the visit works
There’s no need to move everything out before we come, only the area right around the joints. Everything nearby is protected, and the work takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom for a typical job. Somewhere like Duns Tew needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park.

- The old silicone is cut out completely, along with the film it leaves on the tiles.
- Joints are degreased and any mould is treated.
- When the joint is dry, and a bath has been filled with water, the new silicone goes on.
- The bead is tooled smooth and you are told the cure time, usually around 24 hours.

Advice
Should I try it myself first?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly.
Aftercare tips
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Look for lifting corners and small gaps now and then
- Wait for the cure time we give you
- Keep the fan on for a while after bathing
- Never pick at the silicone with a blade
Keep water off the new bead until it has cured, following the cure time we give you. After that, a quick wipe after showering helps keep it clean.
A failed kitchen joint is easy to miss. Splashes run behind the back edge and soak into the worktop, and the board underneath can swell. Resealing before that happens protects the worktop.
