How we handle bathroom resealing in East Harting

Across East Harting, the joints we reseal are the ones that fail in any home: bath edges, tray joints, basin backs and kitchen upstands. Each one is stripped, cleaned and dried before new silicone goes in. If you are dealing with cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone and leaking joints on a shower screen, we can put it right, whatever the surface.

Homes around East Harting are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

What happens on the day

On the day, we look over the joints with you first, so you know exactly what we are doing. We protect the surfaces around the joints before work begins. The work generally takes half a day or less for one room, longer when the kitchen is included. For a village or hamlet like East Harting, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.

  1. First, each joint is checked for movement and signs of water.
  2. The old silicone is cut out completely, along with the film it leaves on the tiles.
  3. The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
  4. With the joint dry, and any bath loaded with water, a single bead of anti-fungal silicone is applied.
  5. The bead is tooled smooth and you’re told the cure time, usually around 24 hours.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if parking is tricky
  • Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
  • Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

When it is not the sealant

Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:

  • Movement from a bath with loose feet or no proper support
  • Water coming from the plumbing rather than the joint
  • Tiles that have come away from the wall

If you’re not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Why deal with it now?

Sorting it now is quick: it 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. Older cottages and farmhouses around East Harting can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.

What it costs depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. You will have a clear quote before any work starts.

What we are called out for in East Harting

Sealing over old silicone is one of the commonest mistakes we find. Fresh silicone cannot grip the old bead underneath, so it lifts, lets water in and traps mould underneath.

People generally contact us after spotting one of these:

  • Leaking joints on a shower screen
  • Water getting behind the kitchen upstand
  • Cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone
  • Splits where the tray meets the wall

Managing a site like Harting CofE Primary School? Then its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

Our hiring checklist

DIY sealant or a professional job?

Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.

Common questions in East Harting

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

Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before work begins.

Is East Harting in your area for bathroom resealing?

Do you have insurance?

Yes. Full insurance covers our work.

Is white the only colour available?

We can use white, clear or a colour to suit. On a worktop we colour-match where the joint shows.

Does someone need to be in?

For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. Once we’ve agreed the job, you don’t need to watch us work.

How long does the new silicone need before I use the shower?

Around 24 hours is typical, and we confirm the time for the product used. Getting it wet too early can spoil the new joint.

How long will the resealing take?

Allow a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers. We will confirm how long your job needs when we quote.

Bathroom resealing around East Harting

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 let a flat or house near Petersfield station, fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay. If you live in an older home near The Parish Church of St Mary & St Gabriel, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

Basins & vanity units

On a basin, neatness shows: the bead is right in front of you, so it’s tooled cleanly and evenly, finished in a colour that suits the basin.

Shower trays & enclosures

Water often gets past the wall profile of a shower enclosure. We reseal it along with the base of the enclosure, following the enclosure maker’s guidance on which side to seal.
