Gurnard Bathroom Resealing
We cover Gurnard for bath, shower, basin, wet room, worktop and sink resealing. Old material cut out, joints cleaned and sealed neatly and every job guaranteed for a year.

Bathroom resealing in Gurnard
Homes in Gurnard have the same weak spots as anywhere else: bath edges, tray joints, basin backs and kitchen upstands. Every joint is cut out, cleaned and left dry before it’s resealed. If you have new sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting and lumpy, uneven sealant from a DIY attempt, we can put it right.
Being in a small place like Gurnard makes no difference to the job itself: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.
You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.

When something else is needed
To be straight with you, some problems need a different trade:
- Cracks in the tray itself rather than the joint
- Cracked or missing grout between tiles (that’s regrouting)
- Movement from a bath with loose feet or no proper support
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think before booking.
What we seal
- Baths
- Wet rooms
- Sinks & splashbacks
- Kitchen worktops & upstands
- Basins & vanity units
- Shower trays & enclosures
Aftercare tips
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Wipe the sealant dry after showering
- Check the joints every few months for splits or lifting
- Let new sealant cure fully before it gets wet
- Clean with a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth
Treat the new bead gently when you clean: a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth is enough. Avoid scouring pads and anything sharp, and a nicked bead lets mould in sooner.
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 affects the cost of bathroom resealing
Your quote is based on your job. We look at:
- The number of rooms or windows
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- The number and length of the joints
- The product the joint needs
What it costs depends on how much there is to do, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. We give a clear quote before work begins, so you know where you stand.
Asking for a quote
Photos help, but a description is a good start. Please mention:
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- Roughly how big the job is
There’s no standard price list, because every job is different. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To arrange one, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
What happens on the day
On the day, we start by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Surfaces next to the work are protected before we start. The work generally takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom. Somewhere like Gurnard needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- First, each joint is checked for movement and signs of water.
- Every trace of the old bead is removed, including the thin smear 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.
- We tool the bead to a neat finish and give you the cure time, usually around 24 hours.
Before we arrive
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Tell us if parking is tricky

Common questions in Gurnard
Will you come out to Gurnard?
Yes, Gurnard is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Do you work in hotels near Gurnard?
Yes, hotels and guest houses are among the places we work. A room-by-room programme keeps most rooms in use while the work goes on.
Does someone need to be in?
That depends on where the joints are. Inside work needs someone to give us access.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Always. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, so we never do it.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit, so mention them when you ask for a quote.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. ARBOMaster is the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants, and we’re part of it.

We keep the work tidy. We protect what’s around the joints, and we clear up when we are done.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Gurnard
We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.
Gurnard homes and their sealant
Gurnard is within about 1 mile of the coast. Near the coast, holiday lets and guest houses can see bathrooms used by one guest after another, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. Gurnard has hotels and guest accommodation nearby. As well as homes, we work in hotel bathrooms, where resealing and regrouting can be done room by room.
If you live in an older home near All Saints' Church, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

Signs you need bathroom resealing in Gurnard
A bath shifts a little every time it’s filled and emptied. An acrylic bath flexes under load, while a poorly supported tray can shift underfoot. That movement works at the bead until it splits or peels away.
The most common problems we see are:
- Lumpy, uneven sealant from a DIY attempt
- Water escaping at the shower enclosure
- Leaks into the floor or ceiling below
- Sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away
If you look after a building such as Gurnard 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.
