Bathroom & kitchen resealing in Finstock, Oxfordshire
Our applicators work in Finstock on bath, shower, basin, wet room, worktop and sink resealing. Old material cut out, joints cleaned and sealed neatly and a 12-month guarantee.
- Mouldy sealant that has gone black
- A messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal
- Leaking joints on a shower screen
How we handle bathroom resealing in Finstock
Showers work their sealant harder than baths. Trays, enclosures, screen profiles and wet room floors all need a flexible, waterproof seal. They’re resealed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone, tooled smooth so water runs off instead of sitting in a ridge. Common call-outs are for sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away and water getting behind the kitchen upstand, across sinks & splashbacks, kitchen worktops & upstands and basins & vanity units.
Homes around Finstock are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. The work is the same as anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

DIY versus a professional finish
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
What happens if it’s left?
Sorting it now is quick: the work takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom. Wait for a leak and you may be looking at panels off, drying out and redecorating too. In a small place like Finstock, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
There are no prices on our website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll talk you through it.

How the job changes by surface
Baths
Most bath leaks begin along the long edge, especially under a shower. We finish it with a single, even bead of anti-fungal silicone.
Sinks & splashbacks
Where a splashback meets the worktop, there’s a joint that catches every splash. It’s resealed in white, clear or a colour to suit.
Bathrooms and kitchens in Finstock
Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
Letting a property close to Finstock station? Then a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for. Managing a site like Finstock Church of England Primary School? Then 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. For an older house near a landmark such as Church of the Holy Trinity, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

How the visit works
We bring everything the job needs with us, so there’s nothing for you to buy. After a quick look at the joints together, the area is protected and the work begins. It normally takes half a day or less for one room, longer when the kitchen is included. Somewhere as small as Finstock, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We look at every joint first and check for movement or leaks.
- The old silicone is cut out completely, along with the film it leaves on the tiles.
- Joints are degreased and any mould is treated.
- With the joint dry, and any bath loaded with water, a single bead of anti-fungal silicone is applied.
- The bead is tooled smooth and you’re told the cure time, usually around 24 hours.
How to prepare
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on

Finstock: your questions answered
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Finstock station?
Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before we start.
Will you come out to Finstock?
Yes. Finstock is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Is white the only colour available?
White and clear are the most common choices, and other colours are available to suit tiles, trays and worktops. Let us know your preference when you ask for a quote.
Is it OK to put new sealant on top of the old bead?
No, never. Sealing over the top looks fine for a few weeks, then lifts. Every trace of the old bead is removed first.
What do you need from me for a quote?
A short description and the location, with photos by email if possible. We will ask anything else we need to know.
Do I have to be there?
That depends on where the joints are. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in, and for outside work we’ll agree access with you when we book.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. We can plan bigger jobs in stages.
How long will the resealing take?
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.
When something else is needed
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant will not do:
- Cracks in the tray itself rather than the joint
- Movement from a bath with loose feet or no proper support
- Water coming from the plumbing rather than the joint
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll say what we think before booking.
