About our bathroom resealing in Hethe
A shower joint gets soaked every day. Trays, enclosures, screen profiles and wet room floors all need a flexible, waterproof seal. Each gets a bead of anti-fungal sanitary silicone, finished smooth so water drains away rather than collecting. Typical jobs include splits where the tray meets the wall and a bead that has pulled away from the tiles, on shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & upstands.
In a village or hamlet like Hethe, homes are often older cottages and farmhouses alongside a few newer houses. Movement in older walls and floors tends to show first as cracked grout or split sealant.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right with it, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

Signs you need bathroom resealing in Hethe
Silicone doesn’t last for ever. Every shower, every splash and every wipe with a cleaner take their toll over the years, and how long it lasts comes down to use, cleaning and ventilation.
People normally contact us when they notice something like this:
- Leaking joints on a shower screen
- Sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away
- Black spots spreading through the bead
- A joint torn by a bath that flexes
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Fringford Church of England 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.

When it isn’t the sealant
Sealant is not the answer to every problem, and we will tell you before any work starts. It won’t solve:
- Cracked or missing grout between tiles (that is regrouting)
- Damage behind the tiles that needs a tiler
- Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
If you are not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you a straight answer.

Hethe homes and their sealant
Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
If you live in an older home near Church of St Edmund and George, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them. For landlords with property near Bicester North station, a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
If you manage several properties in or around Hethe, several properties can go on one quote. Send us the addresses and the work at each.
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.
Surface by surface
Wet rooms
A wet room floor and its walls can move independently, so the corners need a flexible seal, not grout. Where grout in a corner has cracked, we can replace it with sealant.
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.
What affects the quote in Hethe
Call for a quick quote. What matters most is:

What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why we ask a few questions first and agree the price before starting.

Common questions in Hethe
I let a flat near Bicester North station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Can you do bathroom resealing in Hethe?
Yes, Hethe is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job, and we will send you a clear quote.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
What colours of sealant can you use?
There’s a choice: clear, white and colours chosen to suit the room. We can help you pick when we quote.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes. More than one area can be quoted together.
Is it worth trying it myself?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.
Can mouldy silicone be sorted out?
Yes, by replacing the sealant. Sprays can fade the marks, but cutting it out and resealing is what lasts. Airing the room well helps stop it returning.
Do I need to be at home?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What happens on the day
At the end, we look at the finished work together. The visit itself generally takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom, depending on how much there is to do. In a small place like Hethe, access is usually the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We cover the area around the joints we are 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
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Let us know about parking restrictions

Related advice
Why it’s worth doing now in Hethe
Leaving a split or mouldy bead only stores up trouble. Once water is behind the bath, it can reach floorboards, panels and the ceiling underneath, turning a small job into a building repair. Older cottages and farmhouses around Hethe can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, along with when we can work on site. Ask us for a quote and we will go through it with you.
