- Water getting behind the bath panel
- Cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone
DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Bathroom resealing in Friar's Hill
It isn’t only bathrooms. The joint between worktop and wall, the edge of the sink and the bottom of the splashback all take splashes every day, and water behind a laminate worktop can make it swell. We reseal them with a kitchen-suitable silicone, matched to the worktop where it’s on show. If you’re dealing with failed sealant on the screen profile and sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away, we can put it right, on basins & vanity units, baths and shower trays & enclosures alike.
Homes around Friar's Hill are mostly 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: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.
Our work is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

Questions from Friar's Hill
Do you work for landlords with property near Three Oaks station?
Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear quote.
Can you do bathroom resealing in Friar's Hill?
Yes, Friar's Hill is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job.
Is there any odour?
That depends on the sealant. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all, and any smell fades as they cure.
How long before the new sealant can get wet?
After around 24 hours in most cases. We will tell you the cure time for the product we used.
Do you work for hotels and businesses?
Yes. Hotels, offices and other businesses use us, and we’re fully insured.
Should I try DIY first?
That depends on the joint. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, so we never do it.
Do I need to be at home?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
When it is not the sealant
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- A leaking waste, trap or valve
- A tray that rocks until it’s re-bedded
- Failed grout lines across the wall
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will say what we think.

How the visit works
When we arrive, we look over the joints with you first, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Surfaces next to the work are protected before work begins. Most jobs take around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom. Somewhere like Friar's Hill needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We look at every joint first and check for movement or leaks.
- Every trace of the old bead is removed, including the thin smear 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.
How to prepare
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules

Surface by surface
Shower trays & enclosures
Shower trays are sealed to the wall, and enclosures are sealed to the tray and tiles. Both get soaked every time the shower runs, so each is cut out and renewed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone.
Sinks & splashbacks
Where a splashback meets the worktop, there’s a joint that catches every splash. We renew it in clear, white or a matched colour.
Nearby places to Friar's Hill
Other services in Friar's Hill
Bathroom resealing around Friar's Hill
Friar's Hill is close to the coast. Near the coast, holiday lets and guest houses can see bathrooms used by one guest after another, which wears sealant and grout out faster than in a quiet home. Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
For landlords with property near Three Oaks station, mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Guestling Bradshaw Church of England Primary 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.

What we are called out for in Friar's Hill
Not every tube in the shop is meant for a shower. Decorators’ caulk and all-purpose sealants are not made for constant wetting, so they stain, crack or go mouldy before long. Wet areas call for a sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Two layers of silicone, both failing
- Leaking joints on a shower screen
- Lumpy, uneven sealant from a DIY attempt
- Black mould in the silicone that won’t clean off
If you live in an older home near St Laurence's Church, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.
What to look for in a quote

What happens if it’s left?
Leaving a split or mouldy bead only stores up trouble. Water that gets behind a bath soaks into the floor, the panel and sometimes the ceiling below, and that is a far bigger job than a reseal. Around Friar's Hill, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we ask a few questions first and give you a clear quote before any work starts.
