How we quote for bathroom resealing

Every job gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • The number and length of the joints
  • Working hours on commercial sites
  • Whether there’s mould to deal with
  • Whether the work is at height

Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs, plus any working-time requirements on site. Ask us for a quote and we’ll explain what it covers.

Helping us quote

There’s no need for technical detail. Just tell us:

  • How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
  • Where the property is
  • Whether it has been sealed before
  • What’s wrong with the joints now

For bathroom resealing in Hastings, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email. Tell us what the problem is and where, and we’ll agree the price before any work begins.

About our bathroom resealing in Hastings

Before a bath is sealed, it’s filled with water. The weight settles the bath to its lowest point, so the new joint isn’t pulled apart the first time it’s used. It’s a small step that rushed reseals tend to skip. If you have two layers of silicone, both failing and failed sealant on the screen profile, we can help, on shower trays & enclosures, baths and kitchen worktops & upstands alike.

A large town like Hastings has plenty of rented homes, and bathrooms in rentals work hard. Fresh sealant and clean grout help a property present well between tenants and stop water getting where it shouldn’t.

Every job is covered by a 12-month guarantee.

Common problems we fix in Hastings

Plenty of failed sealant has been laid over the top of older sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, so it peels, leaks and hides mould behind it.

Any of these means the joints need attention:

  • Mouldy sealant that has gone black
  • Damp behind the bath or under the tray
  • Shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop
  • A reseal done over the top of the old bead

If you live in an older home near St Luke's Church, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

Before you book anyone

  • Whether they seal over old material or remove it
  • How much experience the applicator has
  • What product goes in the joint
  • Are they insured?

How to choose a mastic man

The process

When we arrive, we start by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work begins. The work generally takes half a day or less for one room, longer when the kitchen is included. Jobs in a place the size of Hastings range from town-centre flats to offices and family homes. Whichever it is, tell us how to get in, where to park and where the work is.

  1. We look at every joint first and check for movement or leaks.
  2. The old silicone is cut out completely, along with the film it leaves on the tiles.
  3. The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
  4. With the joint dry, and any bath loaded with water, a single bead of anti-fungal silicone is applied.
  5. The bead is tooled smooth and you’re told the cure time, normally around 24 hours.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
  • On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
  • Keep children and pets away from the work area

Advice

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Tell us the address, the job and how access works and we’ll give you a quote.

Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.

Different surfaces, different methods

Wet rooms

If a wet room leaks, the cause may be the tanking or the drain rather than the joints. We check the joints and say so if the fault looks to be elsewhere.

Shower trays & enclosures

Shower trays are sealed to the wall, and enclosures are sealed to the tray and tiles. Both get soaked every time the shower runs, so both are resealed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone.

DIY versus a professional finish

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

A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

Common questions in Hastings

Is Hastings in your area for bathroom resealing?

Yes, Hastings is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us what needs doing.

Hastings homes and their sealant

Hastings is within about 2 miles of the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.

If you let a flat or house near St Leonards Warrior Square station, fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay. Managing a site like St Paul's Church of England Academy? Then 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.

Why act early in Hastings

Most of the work in a good reseal happens before any silicone goes on: cutting out every trace of the old bead, cleaning, treating mould and letting the joint dry. Without that preparation, the new bead won’t last. For businesses in Hastings, a room closed because of a leak or mould costs more than the sealant, so failing joints are best replaced on a planned basis.

The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask about the job first.
