Bathroom resealing in Folly Town, 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. Just as important, it closes the gaps water would otherwise get through. We work on sinks & splashbacks, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures, and people most often call us about water getting behind the bath panel and shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop.
Around Folly Town, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.
Our work is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

What happens on the day
There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Show us the job and we’ll take it from there. The job generally takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom from start to finish. For a village or hamlet like Folly Town, 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.
- 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.
- The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
- When the joint is dry, and a bath has been filled with water, the new silicone goes on.
- The bead is tooled smooth and you are told the cure time, generally around 24 hours.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Tell us if parking is tricky

DIY versus a professional finish
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
What affects the cost of bathroom resealing
The price is agreed before any work begins. It’s based on:
- The type of sealant required
- Working hours on commercial sites
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- The size of the job
Combining jobs into one visit is usually more efficient than separate visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. We’ll send you a clear quote for the lot.
Asking for a quote
Photos help, but a description is a good start. Try to tell us:
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- A few pictures by email, if you can
- The type of property
- The problem you’ve noticed
A good description makes for an accurate quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints.
For landlords and businesses
Landlords and letting agents in Folly Town can book us as well as homeowners. Resealing between tenancies keeps a property looking cared for before the next move-in.
Hotels need rooms back in use, so the work can be planned room by room. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
Why it’s worth doing now in Folly Town
Sorting it now is quick: it takes a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers. Left until water gets through, the job can grow to lifting panels, drying out and decorating. Older cottages and farmhouses around Folly Town can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference.

Folly Town: your questions answered
Can you do bathroom resealing in Folly Town?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Folly Town is part of that. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job.
Do you cover smaller places like Folly Town?
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.
My sealant has gone black. Can you sort it?
Yes, by replacing the sealant. Sprays can fade the marks, but cutting it out and resealing is what lasts. Airing the room well helps stop it returning.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned before applying anything new.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status and we are fully insured too.
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. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.
Can landlords and businesses book you?
Yes. Domestic, commercial and hotel work are all part of what we do, and we are fully insured.
Do I have to be there?
That depends on where the joints are. Inside work needs someone to give us access, while outside work can sometimes be arranged differently.
When something else is needed
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- A leaking waste, trap or valve
- Movement from a bath with loose feet or no proper support
- Damage behind the tiles that needs a tiler
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will say what we think.

What we are called out for in Folly Town
Sealant laid on a damp, dusty or greasy joint never bonds properly. Soap residue, oils and leftover silicone film all get in the way, and a joint that looked fine soon begins to come away.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Water escaping at the shower enclosure
- Sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away
- A messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal
- Black mould in the silicone that won’t clean off
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Mary, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.
What your quote should include
- Whether VAT is included
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
- What product goes in the joint
- Whether they’re fully insured
