Bathroom resealing in Hanworth, done properly

A bead that has gone black, split or come away is worth sorting before it lets water through. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a photo of the joints, and you’ll get a clear quote for bathroom resealing in Hanworth. We work on basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms, and people most often call us about splits where the tray meets the wall and failed sealant on the screen profile.

Smaller places like Hanworth still have plenty of bathrooms that work hard every day. Older or newer, every room gets the same approach: all the old material out, the joint cleaned and dried, then new sealant or grout.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after new joints is easy:

  • Move toiletries away from the joint
  • Keep an eye on the corners, where splits start
  • Never pick at the silicone with a blade
  • Let new sealant cure fully before it gets wet

Good ventilation does more than any cleaner. Use the fan, or open a window, while you bathe and for a while afterwards, so the bead dries out between uses.

Worktop joints fail quietly. Water gets behind the upstand and into the edge of a laminate worktop, where it can make the board swell. A reseal in time can save the worktop.

Bathrooms and kitchens in Hanworth

Bracknell, which Hanworth is part of, is one of England’s post-war new towns. Many homes date from the post-war decades, so bathrooms and kitchens may be on their second or third set of sealant. Sealant laid over old sealant never bonds properly, so it all has to come out. 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.

Letting a property close to Bracknell station? Then fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay. Schools such as The Pines School are buildings too, and 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. Homes close to St Michael and St Mary Magdalene's Church include some older properties, and older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

How the job changes by surface

Kitchen worktops & upstands

Kitchen joints need more degreasing than bathroom ones, since cooking leaves a film that stops silicone sticking. Proper degreasing is what helps the new joint last.

Wet rooms

Not every wet room leak is a sealant problem. We reseal the joints and will tell you if the water seems to be coming from somewhere else.

Leave it or put it right?

A clean new bead makes a room look cared for, which helps when a home is being let or put on the market. Lumpy sealant with smears on the tiles has the opposite effect. Around Hanworth, water from a failed joint in an older home can soak into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the sealant itself.

A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you an honest view and a quote.

How it works

We work through the job in order: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. Typically it takes two to three hours for a typical bath, depending on how much old sealant there is and we leave things clean and tidy. In a smaller place like Hanworth, parking is seldom the issue; lanes, gates and long drives are worth mentioning. If the job is outside, tell us about side access and how high the joints are.

  1. We start by protecting the area and stripping out the old bead, including the film left on the tiles.
  2. The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
  3. The joint is left to dry, and baths are filled with water first.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
  • For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
  • Clear items away from the joints we’re working on

Advice

DIY versus a professional finish

If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.

Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.

When something else is needed

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what new sealant will not do:

  • Water coming from the plumbing rather than the joint
  • A tray that rocks until it’s re-bedded
  • Cracked or missing grout between tiles (that’s regrouting)

If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will say what we think before booking.

What we seal

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

What affects the cost of bathroom resealing

Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:

  • Working hours on commercial sites
  • How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
  • Any mould that needs treating
  • The old material and how stubborn it is

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 we start.

What to tell us for a quote

A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:

  • Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
  • The rough size of the job
  • The address or postcode of the job
  • Any previous sealing or DIY work
