Bathroom resealing for Farley Hill homes and businesses

When it isn’t the sealant

To be straight with you, there are a few things sealant will not fix:

  • A cracked shower tray or bath (that needs repair or replacement)
  • A tray that rocks until it’s re-bedded
  • Tiles that have come away from the wall

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

Bathroom resealing in Farley Hill, done properly

A fresh bead of silicone changes how a bathroom looks more than most people expect. Mouldy silicone makes even a new bathroom look neglected, and a neat new joint puts that right in a short visit. It also seals the gaps that let water behind the bath. If you have new sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting and a joint torn by a bath that flexes, we can help.

Being in a small place like Farley Hill makes no difference to the job itself: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.

A 12-month guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after we’ve gone.

Bathroom resealing around Farley Hill

Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.

In the older streets around St Eligius, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. Schools such as Farley Hill Primary School are buildings too, and its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. If you let a flat or house near Wokingham station, mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets.

Should I try it myself first?

Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.

Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.

Common questions in Farley Hill

Can you do bathroom resealing in Farley Hill?

Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Farley Hill is part of that. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job, and we will give you a clear quote.

Is Farley Hill within the area you cover?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

Can you just seal over the old silicone?

No, and it’s one of the main reasons reseals fail. We cut out all of the old sealant, clean the joint and start again.

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

After around 24 hours in most cases. We’ll tell you the cure time for the product we used.

Where are you based?

We work from Crawley. Our applicators cover Farley Hill, along with the rest of our area.

Can I choose the colour of the sealant?

There’s a choice: clear, white and colours chosen to suit the room. We can help you pick when we quote.

Do you guarantee your resealing?

Yes. Every job carries our 12-month guarantee, and we are fully insured.

Can I do it myself?

You can, for simple jobs. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.

Surface by surface

Sinks & splashbacks

Water getting under the rim of an inset sink can soak the worktop. Where the sealant around the visible edge has failed, we renew it.

Kitchen worktops & upstands

Upstands and back edges are cut out, cleaned of grease and resealed, since cooking leaves a film that stops silicone sticking. Proper degreasing is what helps the new joint last.

How to look after the new joints

Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Wipe up water along the back of the worktop
  • Stick to a soft cloth and a mild cleaner
  • Wait for the cure time we give you
  • Keep an eye on the corners, where splits start

Check the sealant now and then. A small split or a corner lifting is easy to spot, and if anything looks wrong, just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.

A split bead lets water through every time the bath or shower is used. Over time that water reaches floors, walls and ceilings. Early resealing closes the gap before damage is done.

How the visit works

The work is kept neat and contained to the joints we’re treating. Expect the work to take a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers. For a village or hamlet like Farley Hill, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.

  1. We look at every joint first and check for movement or leaks.
  2. Every trace of the old bead is removed, including the thin smear on the tiles.
  3. The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
  4. When the joint is dry, and a bath has been filled with water, the new silicone goes on.
  5. We tool the bead to a neat finish and give you the cure time, normally around 24 hours.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
  • Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
  • Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
