What bathroom resealing looks like in Fernhill
There are hotels and other places to stay in and around Fernhill. Hotel bathrooms are part of our work as well as homes, and can be done room by room. 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.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Oakwood School, 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. If you let a flat or house near Gatwick Airport station, fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay.

How we handle bathroom resealing in Fernhill
Sealant that’s mouldy, cracked or peeling is worth sorting before it lets water through. A photo of the joints helps when you ring 0345 464 0079 or email us, and we will give you a clear quote for bathroom resealing in Fernhill. If you have gaps where the bath or tray has moved and shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Homes around Fernhill 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.
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.

The process
Once we’re on site, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. Most jobs then take a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen. Somewhere like Fernhill needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- We start by protecting the area and stripping out the old bead, including the film left on the tiles.
- We clean and degrease the joint and treat any mould.
- The joint is left to dry, and baths are filled with water first.
- A single bead of anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied and tooled smooth.
- We tidy up and give you the cure time, normally around 24 hours.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Tell us if parking is tricky

Questions from Fernhill
Do you work in hotels near Fernhill?
Yes, hotels and guest houses are among the places we work. Rooms can be done a few at a time, so the building stays open.
I let a flat near Gatwick Airport station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Does the resealing come with a guarantee?
Yes, for 12 months. Good ventilation and gentle cleaning help it last.
Is it worth trying it myself?
Sometimes. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. If it doesn’t work out, we can redo it.
Can you just seal over the old silicone?
No. Fresh silicone cannot stick to the old bead, so it peels away and hides mould and water. We always take the old sealant out completely.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We’re an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint.
How long will the resealing take?
That depends on the number of joints and the state of the old sealant. For most single baths or showers, allow a couple of hours.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:
- Avoid abrasive pads on the sealant
- Wait for the cure time we give you
- Squeegee the walls and tray after use
- Run the extractor fan during and after every shower
Treat the new bead gently when you clean: a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth is enough. Avoid scouring pads and anything sharp, because a damaged bead gives mould a foothold.
Mould that starts as a few spots spreads through the bead. Once it’s deep in the silicone, cleaning normally won’t remove it, and nearby grout often goes the same way. Replacing the sealant early keeps the job small.

Landlord and commercial work in Fernhill

Different surfaces, different methods
Baths
A bath shifts slightly every time it’s filled, so we fill it with water before sealing. That way the joint is laid with the bath at its heaviest and isn’t torn the first time it’s used.
Shower trays & enclosures
Shower trays are sealed to the wall, and enclosures are sealed to the tray and tiles. Both take water every day, so each is cut out and renewed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly.
When to call us in Fernhill
Silicone needs a clean, dry surface without any grease to stick to. 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 generally mention when they call are:
- Black mould in the silicone that will not clean off
- Sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away
- Gaps where the bath or tray has moved
- Two layers of silicone, both failing
Homes close to Church of St Bartholomew include some older properties, and timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.
