How we handle bathroom resealing in Gilbert Street
Across Gilbert Street, the joints we reseal are the ones that fail in any home: the long edge of the bath, the base of the shower tray, the back of the basin and the line along the worktop. Every joint is cut out, cleaned and left dry before it’s resealed. If you are dealing with a joint torn by a bath that flexes and water escaping at the shower enclosure, we can put it right, on shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & upstands alike.
In a village or hamlet like Gilbert Street, homes are often older cottages and farmhouses alongside a few newer houses. Older walls and timber floors can move a little, and cracked grout and split sealant are often the first signs.
We stand behind the work with a 12-month guarantee, so you are covered after we have gone.

Honest limits
Sealant is not the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. It will not solve:
- Failed grout lines across the wall
- Cracks in the tray itself rather than the joint
- Movement from a bath with loose feet or no proper support
If you are not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Aftercare tips
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Wipe the sealant dry after showering
- Look for lifting corners and small gaps now and then
- Never pick at the silicone with a blade
- Don’t leave water standing on kitchen joints
Have a look at the joints every few months. A small split or a corner lifting is easy to spot, and if anything looks wrong, just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
Watch for the early signs: lifting ends, gaps, dark shadows under the bead or a stain downstairs. If you spot one, it’s time to reseal.

What we do, step by step
The work is kept neat and contained to the area we’re working on. The job generally takes a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers. For a village or hamlet like Gilbert Street, the journey is planned in advance: 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.
- Next, the joint is cleaned and any mould is treated.
- The joint is left to dry, and baths are filled with water first.
- New anti-fungal silicone goes on in a colour to suit and is tooled to a clean finish.
- Finally we tidy up and explain the cure time before we leave.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before

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, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
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 doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.

How long does a bath or shower reseal take?
A single bath or shower takes about a couple of hours, old sealant removal included. A full bathroom and kitchen can take most of a day.

Which products do you use?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, chosen to suit the joint. We’ll tell you what we’re using and why.

Signs you need bathroom resealing in Gilbert Street
Plenty of failed sealant has been laid over the top of older sealant. Fresh silicone can’t grip the old bead underneath, so it peels, leaks and hides mould behind it.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone
- Gaps where the bath or tray has moved
- Smears of silicone across the tiles
- Water getting behind the bath panel
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Ropley Church of England Primary School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

How the job changes by surface
Shower trays & enclosures
There are normally two jobs in a shower: the tray-to-wall joint and the enclosure joints. Both get soaked every time the shower runs, so both are resealed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone.
Sinks & splashbacks
Water getting under the rim of an inset sink can soak the worktop. We reseal the visible edge of the sink where it has failed.
