What we do, step by step
On the day, we look over the joints with you first, so there are no surprises. Surfaces next to the work are protected before work begins. The work generally takes a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers. Somewhere as small as Hillhead, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

Landlord and commercial work in Hillhead
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. We can quote for more than one property at once.
Letting agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements.
What sealant work cannot fix
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what sealant can’t put right:
- A tray that rocks until it’s re-bedded
- Tiles that have come away from the wall
- Cracks in the tray itself rather than the joint
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & upstands

Signs you need bathroom resealing in Hillhead
Sealant laid on a damp, dusty or greasy joint never bonds properly. Soap residue, oils and leftover silicone film all get in the way, so a rushed job can start to lift early.
Look out for these signs:
- Failed sealant on the screen profile
- Mouldy sealant that has gone black
- A messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal
- Water getting behind the kitchen upstand
For landlords with property near Hamble station, a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for.
What your quote should include
- How hidden problems are handled
- The length of the guarantee
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- What the cure time is
Hillhead homes and their sealant
Hillhead is within about 1 mile 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. 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.
If you live in an older home near St George, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.
Hillhead is about 4 miles north of Cowes, in Hampshire. Every kind of property in Hillhead is covered for bathroom resealing, old or new, large or small.

DIY versus a professional finish
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.
Common questions in Hillhead
Is Hillhead within the area you cover?
Yes, Hillhead is covered. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
I let a flat near Hamble station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can go on one quote. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Are you insured?
Yes, we are fully insured for domestic and commercial work.
Can you get rid of the black mould in my sealant?
Yes. The old sealant comes out, the mould is treated, and we reseal with anti-fungal sanitary silicone.
Do I have to be there?
We need access to the joints, so we will agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, we can. More than one area can be quoted together.
How long does the new silicone need before I use the shower?
We give you the cure time before we leave, and it’s generally around 24 hours. Getting it wet too early can spoil the new joint.
Can I choose the colour of the sealant?
You are not limited to white: clear, white and colours chosen to suit the room. We can help you pick when we quote.
Keeping the joints in good condition
A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:
- Squeegee the walls and tray after use
- Stick to a soft cloth and a mild cleaner
- Run the extractor fan during and after every shower
- Check the joints every few months for splits or lifting
Don’t stand bottles along the bead, as they hold water against it. Squeegeeing the walls and tray after use helps the joint dry.
Mould that starts as a few spots spreads through the bead. When it has grown right through, it rarely cleans out, and nearby grout often goes the same way. Replacing the sealant early keeps the job small.
What affects the cost of bathroom resealing
We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- When we can work, for business premises
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- The number and length of the joints
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs, plus any working-time requirements on site. Call for a quick quote and we’ll go through it with you.

When you contact us, these details help:
- A few photos by email, if you can
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
