Bathroom Resealing in Elmbridge Village
Problem with your baths, showers and worktops in Elmbridge Village? We remove the old material, prepare the joints and seal them properly, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
- A messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal
- A joint torn by a bath that flexes
- Leaking joints on a shower screen
What we do, step by step
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 any work starts. Most jobs take two to three hours for a typical bath, depending on how much old sealant there is. In a small place like Elmbridge Village, access is usually the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We start by protecting the area and stripping out the old bead, including the film left on the tiles.
- Next, the joint is cleaned and any mould is treated.
- We let it dry fully and fill the bath with water before sealing.
- New anti-fungal silicone goes on in a colour to suit and is tooled to a clean finish.
- Finally we tidy up and explain the cure time before we leave.
Before we arrive
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

DIY versus a professional finish
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Stick to a soft cloth and a mild cleaner
- Keep an eye on the corners, where splits start
- Never pick at the silicone with a blade
- Wait for the cure time we give you
In a kitchen, do not let water sit along the back of the worktop and keep hot pans away from the silicone. A dry joint lasts longer.
A failed kitchen joint is easy to miss. Splashes run behind the back edge and soak into the worktop, where it can make the board swell. Resealing before that happens protects the worktop.

Elmbridge Village: your questions answered
Is there a guarantee on bathroom resealing in Elmbridge Village?
Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, wherever it is. We are fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Do you cover smaller places like Elmbridge Village?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Where do you work from?
We’re based in Crawley, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.
What do you put in the joint?
Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, chosen to suit the joint. We will tell you what we’re using and why.
How long does it take to reseal a bath or shower?
It depends on how many joints there are and how much old sealant has to come out. For most single baths or showers, allow a couple of hours.
How long before the new sealant can get wet?
After around 24 hours in most cases. You will get the exact cure time before we leave.
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.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. Hotels, offices and other businesses use us.
What happens if it’s left?
Bleach and mould sprays may lighten black marks for a while, but mould that has grown into the sealant tends to return. Cutting it out and resealing with anti-fungal silicone is the fix that lasts. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Elmbridge Village, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

Elmbridge Village homes and their sealant
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.

Different surfaces, different methods
Kitchen worktops & upstands
Upstands and back edges are cut out, cleaned of grease and resealed, since cooking leaves a film that stops silicone sticking. The extra cleaning is what makes the bead last.
Wet rooms
Wet room floors move slightly as they’re used, so the internal corners need silicone rather than grout. Where grout in a corner has cracked, we can replace it with sealant.
Signs you need bathroom resealing in Elmbridge Village
Mould is the reason many people want their sealant replaced. Bathrooms without good ventilation give mould all the damp it needs, and once it has grown into the bead, cleaning rarely gets it out.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Splits where the tray meets the wall
- Gaps between the worktop and the wall
- Sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away
- Two layers of silicone, both failing
Schools such as Glebelands School are buildings too, and washroom and kitchen sealant there needs the same care as at home, and schools and businesses are part of our work as well as homes.
