Bathroom resealing near East Wellow

When to call us in East Wellow

Mould is the reason many people want their sealant replaced. Steamy rooms that don’t dry out give mould all the damp it needs, and mould that has grown into the silicone normally will not clean off.

The problems people normally mention when they call are:

  • Mouldy sealant that has gone black
  • A messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal
  • A reseal done over the top of the old bead
  • Shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop

If you let a flat or house near Romsey station, mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets.

10 questions to ask before you book

How we handle bathroom resealing in East Wellow

Sealant that’s mouldy, cracked or peeling is worth sorting before it lets water through. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a photo of the joints, and you’ll get a clear quote before any work starts. If you are dealing with sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away and a joint torn by a bath that flexes, we can put it right, whatever the surface.

Homes around East Wellow 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.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Hampshire.

Bathroom resealing in East Wellow: local notes

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.

Schools such as Wellow School are buildings too, and its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. Homes close to Church of St Margaret include some older properties, and bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

Should I try it myself first?

Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.

Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.

When it isn’t the sealant

New sealant can’t fix everything, and we will tell you before any work starts. Sealant won’t put right:

  • Water getting in through the grout rather than the sealant
  • Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • A cracked shower tray or bath (that needs repair or replacement)

If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think.

East Wellow questions

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

Yes, we work for landlords and agents. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear quote.

Is East Wellow within the area you cover?

Yes. East Wellow is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

Does the resealing come with a guarantee?

Yes. All our work comes with a 12-month guarantee.

Do you reseal kitchen worktops and sinks too?

Yes. We reseal worktop upstands, sinks and splashbacks, with a sealant suited to kitchens, colour-matched where it shows.

Do I need to be at home?

We need access to the joints, so we will agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.

Can you work on commercial sites?

Yes. Commercial and hotel work is a large part of what we do. We can talk about working times when we quote.

Are you fully insured?

Yes. We’re fully insured, and we’ve been doing sealant work for more than 20 years.

Will the old sealant be removed?

Always. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, so we never do it.

What the job involves on each surface

Basins & vanity units

Basins take less water than showers, but the joint behind them is splashed every day. Corners behind basins are where mould tends to start, so it’s cut out and renewed just like a bath joint.

Shower trays & enclosures

A tray that rocks will split any sealant. Movement is checked before anything is resealed, and tell you if it needs re-bedding first.

Keeping the joints in good condition

Aftercare is simple:

  • Run the extractor fan during and after every shower
  • Keep scourers and sharp tools away from the bead
  • Wipe up water along the back of the worktop
  • Check the joints every few months for splits or lifting

Do not 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, where it can make the board swell. A reseal in time can save the worktop.

The process

There is not much for you to do on the day. Show us the job and we’ll take it from there. The job generally takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom. Somewhere as small as East Wellow, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. We cover the area around the joints we’re working on.
  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. Any bath is filled with water, then we lay a bead of anti-fungal silicone in white, clear or a matching colour.
  5. The joint is finished neatly and we explain when it can get wet.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
  • Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
  • Mention any parking rules near the property

Getting a quote

It all starts with a short chat. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job, and we’ll talk you through what we’d do. Whenever you’re ready, call 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Advice

Why it’s worth doing now in East Wellow

A failed joint gets more costly to put right the longer it’s left. Once water is behind the bath, it can reach floorboards, panels and the ceiling underneath, turning a small job into a building repair. Older cottages and farmhouses around East Wellow can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.

We don’t show prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a quick quote and we will talk you through it.
