About our bathroom resealing in Great Hallingbury

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. We work on basins & vanity units, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & upstands, and common reasons people get in touch are failed sealant on the screen profile and gaps where the bath or tray has moved.

Somewhere as small as Great Hallingbury, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Movement in older walls and floors tends to show first as cracked grout or split sealant.

There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, large or small.

Bathrooms and kitchens in Great Hallingbury

Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.

Managing a site like Thorn Grove Primary School? Then its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. In the older streets around Church of St Giles, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant. If you let a flat or house near Bishops Stortford station, fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay.

Aftercare tips

After the cure time, these simple habits help:

  • Keep an eye on the corners, where splits start
  • Keep the fan on for a while after bathing
  • Move toiletries away from the joint
  • Use gentle cleaners on the silicone

Check the sealant now and then. A small split or a corner lifting is easy to spot, and if anything looks wrong, just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Do not wait for a refit to deal with failed sealant. Sealant is a maintenance item, like the paint on a window frame, and renewing it as soon as it fails protects everything around it.

What we cannot put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:

  • A tray that rocks until it’s re-bedded
  • A tray or bath that is cracked through
  • A leaking waste, trap or valve

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

What we seal

  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Kitchen worktops & upstands
  • Baths
  • Sinks & splashbacks
  • Wet rooms

DIY versus a professional finish

If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.

Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.

Leave it or put it right?

You don’t need a new bathroom because the sealant looks bad. Replacing the joint is normally all it takes. If something else is wrong, we will tell you. In a small place like Great Hallingbury, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.

Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.

Why book with us

  • More than 20 years in sealant work
  • Anti-fungal silicone where joints get wet
  • An ARBOMaster approved applicator
  • A 12-month guarantee on all work

What the job involves on each surface

Kitchen worktops & upstands

Laminate worktops swell if water gets into the core. A sound joint along the back edge stops that, as long as the worktop itself is firmly fixed.

Basins & vanity units

On a basin, neatness shows: so we keep the line tidy and even, in white, clear or a colour to suit.

What affects the quote in Great Hallingbury

The price is agreed before any work begins. It’s based on:

  • Working hours on commercial sites
  • Which sealant suits the joint
  • How easy the joints are to reach
  • The size of the job

Doing several joints on one visit is generally more efficient than separate visits. We will send you a clear quote for the lot.

What to tell us for a quote

To make quoting easier, please include:

  • Whether it’s a home or a business
  • If someone has resealed it before
  • What’s wrong with the joints now
  • Access, such as stairs, a lift or height

Quotes start with a quick conversation. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job, and we will talk you through what we’d do. When it suits you, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

The process

A visit follows a simple pattern: we look at the joints together, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and tidy away. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers. For a village or hamlet like Great Hallingbury, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.

  1. We start by protecting the area and stripping out the old bead, including the film left on the tiles.
  2. Next, the joint is cleaned and any mould is treated.
  3. Once it’s dry, any bath is filled so the bead is laid with it at its heaviest.
  4. A single bead of anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied and tooled smooth.
  5. Finally we tidy up and explain the cure time before we leave.

How to prepare

  • For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us if parking is tricky
