About our bathroom resealing in Hadleigh
A fresh bead of silicone changes how a bathroom looks more than most people expect. Black, patchy sealant makes clean tiles look tired, and a neat new joint puts that right in a short visit. It also seals the gaps that let water behind the bath. We work on shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and baths, and the jobs we see most are a bead that has pulled away from the tiles and smears of silicone across the tiles.
Even in a smaller place like Hadleigh, bathrooms and kitchens see heavy daily use. Whether it’s a cottage bathroom or a newer en suite, the approach is the same: old sealant or grout cut out, joints cleaned and dried, and a fresh finish laid.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

How the job changes by surface
Shower trays & enclosures
If a tray moves underfoot, new silicone won’t last. We check for movement before we reseal, and if the tray needs refixing, we will say so.
Kitchen worktops & upstands
Upstands and back edges are cut out, cleaned of grease and resealed, since cooking leaves a film that stops silicone sticking. Proper degreasing is what helps the new joint last.
Quotes for bathroom resealing in Hadleigh
Call for a quick quote. What matters most is:
- How easy the joints are to reach
- The type of sealant required
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
There are no prices on our website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. Call for a quick quote and we’ll talk you through it.
What we need to know
To make quoting easier, please include:
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- The rough size of the job
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
It all starts with a short chat. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job. Whenever you’re ready, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:
- Let new sealant cure fully before it gets wet
- Look for lifting corners and small gaps now and then
- Clean with a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth
- Never pick at the silicone with a blade
Don’t stand bottles along the bead, as they hold water against it. A quick squeegee after showering helps the joint dry.
Don’t wait for a refit to deal with failed sealant. Sealant is a maintenance item, like the paint on a window frame, and replacing it when it fails protects the rest of the room.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
From a single let to a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
Letting agents and landlords in Hadleigh can book us as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for before the next move-in.
Hadleigh homes and their sealant
Hadleigh is close to the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, which wears sealant and grout out faster than in a quiet home. Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
Managing a site like Hadleigh Junior School? Then we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. For landlords with property near Leigh-on-Sea station, a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for.

Questions from Hadleigh
Do you cover Hadleigh for bathroom resealing?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Hadleigh is part of that. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Is Hadleigh within the area you cover?
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.
What do you put in the joint?
The product depends on the job: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Is it OK to put new sealant on top of the old bead?
No, never. Sealing over the top looks fine for a few weeks, then lifts. We remove the old bead completely before resealing.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We’re an ARBOMaster approved applicator, which is run for the Arbo sealant brand.
What information do you need?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help too.
Is there any odour?
Possibly a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures.
Do you do kitchens as well as bathrooms?
Yes. The old sealant is cut out and the joint degreased, because cooking grease stops silicone sticking, then we reseal in a colour to suit.
Common problems we fix in Hadleigh
Plenty of failed sealant has been laid over the top of older sealant. New silicone will not bond to old silicone, so it lifts, lets water in and traps mould underneath.
The problems people usually mention when they call are:
- Leaks into the floor or ceiling below
- A messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal
- Gaps where the bath or tray has moved
- Two layers of silicone, both failing
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St James the Less, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.
Before you book anyone
- Whether VAT is included
- How much experience the applicator has
- Which colour the sealant will be
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
What sealant work cannot fix
We’d rather tell you now than do work that won’t last, so here’s what sealant can’t put right:
- A tray or bath that is cracked through
- Cracked or missing grout between tiles (that’s regrouting)
- Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we seal
- Sinks & splashbacks
- Wet rooms
- Baths
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & upstands
How it works
There is not much for you to do on the day. Show us the job and we will take it from there. The job generally takes a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen, including the tidy-up. For a job in Hadleigh, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- We cover the area around the joints we’re working on.
- We cut away the old sealant and clean off what’s left.
- Mould is treated, then the joint is left to dry thoroughly.
- Baths are filled first, then anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied in a colour to suit.
- We finish the joint, clear up and tell you how long to leave it before it gets wet.
How to prepare
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Mention any tricky access
