- A tray that rocks until it’s re-bedded
- Failed grout lines across the wall
- Cracks in the tray itself rather than the joint

How we handle bathroom resealing in Highmoor
With over 20 years in the trade, we reseal baths, showers and kitchens in homes across Highmoor. We’re fully insured ARBOMaster approved applicators, and every job carries our 12-month guarantee. If you’re dealing with failed sealant on the screen profile and a bead that has pulled away from the tiles, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Somewhere as small as Highmoor, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Older walls and timber floors can move a little, and cracked grout and split sealant are often the first signs.
Big or small, you get the same 12-month guarantee.

Highmoor homes and their sealant
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in. There are hotels and other places to stay in and around Highmoor. As well as homes, we work in hotel bathrooms, where resealing and regrouting can be done room by room.
Rented homes near Henley-On-Thames station change hands often, and fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay. If you look after a building such as Stoke Row Church of England School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

How the job changes by surface
Basins & vanity units
Basins take less water than showers, but the joint behind them is splashed every day. Old sealant there often goes black at the corners, so it’s cut out and renewed just like a bath joint.
Kitchen worktops & upstands
Water behind a laminate worktop can make the edge swell. A continuous bead along the back keeps water out, as long as the worktop itself is firmly fixed.
When to call us in Highmoor
Silicone needs a clean, dry surface without any grease to stick to. Soap residue, oils and leftover silicone film all get in the way, and a joint that looked fine soon begins to come away.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Gaps where the bath or tray has moved
- New sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting
- Smears of silicone across the tiles
- Black spots spreading through the bead
Homes close to Church of St Paul include some older properties, and bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.
Before you book anyone
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- The length of the guarantee
- Which colour the sealant will be
Why deal with it now?
Dealing with sealant early is a short job: it takes two to three hours for a typical bath, depending on how much old sealant there is. Wait for a leak and you may be looking at panels off, drying out and redecorating too. Older cottages and farmhouses around Highmoor can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
Why us?
- We leave the area clean and tidy
- 20+ years of sealant experience
- Quality sealants from Arbo and Everbuild
- Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas
Can I do it myself?
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 doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Highmoor questions
Do you work in hotels near Highmoor?
Yes, hotels and guest houses are among the places we work. A room-by-room programme keeps most rooms in use while the work goes on.
Will you come out to Highmoor?
Yes. Highmoor is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
How long before the new sealant can get wet?
Silicone is touch-dry quite quickly, but it takes longer to cure. Keep water off it for around 24 hours, or as long as we advise for that product.
Do the sealants smell?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure, but it fades. Opening a window helps.
My sealant has gone black. Can you sort it?
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.
What does bathroom resealing cost?
The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Ask us for a quote.
Do you reseal kitchen worktops and sinks too?
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.
Where do you work from?
We’re based in Crawley, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.

The process
Good joint work is mostly preparation, so that’s where we spend the time. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. In total, it generally takes a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen. In a small place like Highmoor, access is usually the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- First, each joint is checked for movement and signs of water.
- Every trace of the old bead is removed, including the thin smear on the tiles.
- The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
- With the joint dry, and any bath loaded with water, a single bead of anti-fungal silicone is applied.
- We tool the bead to a neat finish and give you the cure time, usually around 24 hours.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Let us know about parking restrictions
