About our bathroom resealing in Eling

The bead of silicone around a bath, tray or worktop is what keeps water out of the gaps. When it splits, shrinks or turns black, water gets behind it. Every trace of the old sealant is taken out and replaced with anti-fungal sanitary silicone. Common call-outs are for mouldy sealant that has gone black and failed sealant on the screen profile, across shower trays & enclosures, baths and kitchen worktops & upstands.

Smaller places like Eling still have plenty of bathrooms that work hard every day. Older or newer, every room gets the same approach: old sealant or grout cut out, joints cleaned and dried, and a fresh finish laid.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

What bathroom resealing looks like in Eling

Eling is within about 1 mile of the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, which wears sealant and grout out faster than in a quiet home. There are hotels and other places to stay in and around Eling. Hotel bathrooms are part of our work as well as homes, and can be done room by room.

Schools such as Eling Infant School and Nursery are buildings too, and we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. Letting a property close to Totton station? Then mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets.

DIY sealant or a professional job?

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 fails, we can still redo it.

Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.

Leave it or put it right?

Most of the work in a good reseal happens before any silicone goes on: removing all the old sealant, degreasing the joint, treating mould and drying it properly. Without that preparation, the new bead will not last. In a smaller place like Eling, 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.

No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part.

Why Eling clients choose us

  • White, clear, grey or coloured to suit, where the product allows
  • We never seal over old sealant

How the visit works

Once we are on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. After that, the work takes a couple of hours for a single bath or shower. In a smaller place like Eling, parking is seldom the issue; lanes, gates and long drives are worth mentioning. For outside work, side access and the height of the joints help us plan.

  1. We protect the area and cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We clean and degrease the joint and treat any mould.
  3. The joint is left to dry, and baths are filled with water first.
  4. New anti-fungal silicone goes on in a colour to suit and is tooled to a clean finish.
  5. Finally we tidy up and explain the cure time before we leave.

Before we arrive

Advice

When to call us in Eling

Sealant laid on a damp, dusty or greasy joint never bonds properly. Soap residue, oils and leftover silicone film all get in the way, and a joint that looked fine soon begins to come away.

The problems people usually mention when they call are:

  • Lumpy, uneven sealant from a DIY attempt
  • Black spots spreading through the bead
  • Leaks into the floor or ceiling below
  • Cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone

In the older streets around Church of St Mary, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

What to look for in a quote

  • Who does the work, and how experienced they are
  • Is the old sealant removed completely?
  • Is VAT in the price?
  • What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant

How to choose a mastic man

Looking after it afterwards

So the new joints stay in good condition:

  • Let new sealant cure fully before it gets wet
  • Use gentle cleaners on the silicone
  • Squeegee the walls and tray after use
  • Look for lifting corners and small gaps now and then

Don’t stand bottles along the bead, because they trap water against the silicone. A quick squeegee after showering helps the joint dry.

A few black dots in the silicone soon become a black line. Once it’s deep in the silicone, cleaning usually won’t remove it. Catching it early keeps it a simple reseal.
