A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.

About our bathroom resealing in Finkley Down

Resealing is a small job that makes a big difference. Black, patchy sealant makes clean tiles look tired, and a neat new joint puts that right in a short visit. It also seals the gaps that let water behind the bath. We’re often asked to deal with sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away and a messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal, on sinks & splashbacks, wet rooms and baths.

For a small place like Finkley Down, bathroom resealing is planned like any other job: the journey and access are simply agreed in advance. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

What we do, step by step

Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you. The visit itself usually takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom, depending on the size of the job. Somewhere as small as Finkley Down, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  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. We finish the joint, clear up and tell you how long to leave it before it gets wet.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
  • Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
  • Keep children and pets away from the work area

Can I do it myself?

The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.

A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

Common problems we fix in Finkley Down

Baths and trays move. An acrylic bath flexes under load, and a tray that isn’t fully bedded can rock. Over time the joint tears or pulls away from the tile.

The problems people generally mention when they call include:

  • Black spots spreading through the bead
  • New sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting
  • Shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop
  • Smears of silicone across the tiles

Managing a site like Vigo Primary School? Then we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

Questions to ask before booking

  • Which sealant they’ll use, and why
  • How long to leave it before use
  • Which colour the sealant will be
  • How the surfaces are prepared before sealing

How to choose a mastic man

Surface by surface

Shower trays & enclosures

Water often gets past the wall profile of a shower enclosure. It’s resealed along with the tray joints, following the enclosure maker’s guidance on which side to seal.

Sinks & splashbacks

The edge of an inset sink is a common place for water to get under the worktop. Where the sealant around the visible edge has failed, we renew it.

What we cannot put right

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what sealant can’t fix:

  • Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Cracked or missing grout between tiles (that is regrouting)
  • Movement from a bath with loose feet or no proper support

Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will tell you honestly.

Finkley Down: your questions answered

Do you cover smaller places like Finkley Down?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.

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

Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.

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

Silicone is touch-dry quite quickly, but it takes longer to cure. Leave it around 24 hours before it gets wet, or follow the cure time we give you.

Will you leave a mess?

Tidy work is part of the job. Nearby surfaces are protected.

Can you work on commercial sites?

Yes. We’ve worked for hotels, offices and other businesses, and we’re fully insured.

Where do you work from?

We work from Crawley. We cover Finkley Down and the rest of Hampshire.

Do I need to be at home?

It depends on the job. Inside work needs someone to give us access, while outside work can sometimes be arranged differently.

What do you put in the joint?

The product depends on the job: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
