About our bathroom resealing in Highclere

It is not only bathrooms. The joint between worktop and wall, the edge of the sink and the bottom of the splashback get wet every single day, and water that gets into the back edge of a worktop can swell the board. We reseal them with a kitchen-suitable silicone, matched to the worktop where it’s on show. Common call-outs are for shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop and sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away, across basins & vanity units, kitchen worktops & upstands and sinks & splashbacks.

For a small place like Highclere, bathroom resealing is planned like any other job: the journey and access are simply agreed in advance. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee.

FAQs for Highclere

Do you work for landlords with property near Newbury station?

Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the property, and we’ll send you a clear quote.

Do you work for hotels and guest houses in Highclere?

Yes. Hotel and guest-house work is part of what we do. Work can be planned room by room, and out-of-hours working can be arranged.

Are you ARBOMaster approved?

Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status, and we’re fully insured.

Are you insured?

Yes. We are fully insured, with over 20 years’ experience in sealant work.

How long does the new silicone need before I use the shower?

Around 24 hours is typical, and we confirm the time for the product used. Getting it wet too early can spoil the new joint.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the product. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little.

Can you reseal around my kitchen sink and worktop?

Yes. Where it’s needed by the sink, we use a food-safe sealant.

Is it OK to put new sealant on top of the old bead?

No, and it’s one of the main reasons reseals fail. The old joint is stripped, cleaned and resealed from scratch.

How we quote for bathroom resealing

We do not publish a price list. What we look at:

  • The old material and how stubborn it is
  • How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
  • Working hours on commercial sites
  • Whether the work is at height

Combining jobs into one visit generally makes better use of the time than several visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We’ll give you a clear price for the lot.

Helping us quote

Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:

  • Any access issues, like height or stairs
  • If someone has resealed it before
  • Where the job is, and your postcode
  • Pictures of the joints, sent by email

Call for a quick quote, or send an email if you’d rather. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we will talk you through the work before giving you a price.

Why deal with it now?

Running new silicone over the old joint can look tidy for a few weeks, but it can’t stick to what’s underneath. Water creeps under it and mould follows, so the next person has twice as much to remove. Older cottages and farmhouses around Highclere can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.

Leaving a failed joint generally makes the job bigger, not smaller, because water and mould keep working on it. If you’re unsure, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.

Bathroom resealing around Highclere

There are hotels and other places to stay in and around Highclere. As well as homes, we work in hotel bathrooms, where resealing and regrouting can be done room by room. 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.

Schools such as Woolton Hill Junior School are buildings too, and its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. Rented homes near Newbury station change hands often, and a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for.

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:

  • Wipe up water along the back of the worktop
  • Never pick at the silicone with a blade
  • Use gentle cleaners on the silicone
  • Run the extractor fan during and after every shower

Keep water off the new bead until it has cured, following the cure time we give you. After that, a quick wipe after showering helps keep it clean.

Watch for the early signs: a corner lifting, a gap behind the bead, a dark line under the silicone or a damp patch on the ceiling below. Any of these means the joint needs attention.

What we are called out for in Highclere

The wrong product fails fast. Acrylic caulk and general-purpose sealants are not designed for a joint that is wet every day, so they stain, crack or go mouldy before long. Wet areas call for a sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Water escaping at the shower enclosure
  • Lumpy, uneven sealant from a DIY attempt
  • Shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop
  • Sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away

If you live in an older home near Church of St Michael Archangel, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

How it works

A visit follows a simple pattern: we check the joints, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, do the work and clear up. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers. Somewhere as small as Highclere, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. We cover the area around the joints we are working on.
  2. Old sealant is sliced away and the residue removed.
  3. Mould is treated, then the joint is left to dry thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled first, then anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied in a colour to suit.
  5. We finish the joint, clear up and tell you how long to leave it before it gets wet.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
  • Clear the area around the work
  • Mention any parking rules near the property
