Hog Hatch Bathroom Resealing
Problem with your baths, showers and worktops in Hog Hatch? We cut out the old, prepare the joints and apply the right sealant.
- Water escaping at the shower enclosure
- Gaps where the bath or tray has moved
- Water getting behind the kitchen upstand
What happens on the day
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Show us the job and we’ll take it from there. The work itself takes half a day or less for one room, longer when the kitchen is included, including the tidy-up. Parking around Hog Hatch is normally easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. If the job is outside, tell us about side access and how high the joints are.
- We look at every joint first and check for movement or leaks.
- The old silicone is cut out completely, along with the film it leaves on the tiles.
- Joints are degreased and any mould is treated.
- 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
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

Bathroom resealing in Hog Hatch
The secret of a lasting bead is the preparation. Every bit of old silicone comes out, down to the thin film left on the tiles, after which the joint is degreased and any mould treated. New silicone goes on only when the joint is fully dry. Common call-outs are for leaks into the floor or ceiling below and a messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal, across kitchen worktops & upstands, sinks & splashbacks and baths.
In a smaller place like Hog Hatch, homes are mostly houses and bungalows rather than flats, from older cottages to newer builds. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do in a big town.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

Why act early in Hog Hatch
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, and that is a far bigger job than a reseal. Homes in smaller places like Hog Hatch can face more weather, and failed outside joints let damp into walls. Inside, a split seal lets water into floors and panels just as it would anywhere.
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 we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

Bathrooms and kitchens in Hog Hatch
Hog Hatch has hotels and guest accommodation nearby. 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.
For an older house near a landmark such as St Mark the Evangelist Church, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant. Schools such as Folly Hill Infant School are buildings too, and we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Hog Hatch: your questions answered
Do you cover smaller places like Hog Hatch?
Yes, Hog Hatch is covered. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Farnham station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can go on one quote. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.
How long does a bath or shower reseal take?
That depends on the number of joints and the state of the old sealant. Allow a couple of hours for a typical bath or shower.
Can mouldy silicone be sorted out?
Yes, by replacing the sealant. Cleaning products may lighten it, but the lasting fix is new anti-fungal silicone on a clean, treated joint. Good ventilation helps keep it away.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, and it’s something we never do.
Will it make a mess?
Not at all. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
How much does bathroom resealing cost in Hog Hatch?
The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Ask us for a quote and we will talk you through it.
Which products do you use?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, picked for each joint. We explain the product when we quote.
What the job involves on each surface
Sinks & splashbacks
Splashbacks in glass, tile or acrylic meet the worktop in a long joint. It’s resealed in white, clear or a colour to suit.
Baths
Baths move more than any other fitting, so we fill it with water before sealing. That way the joint is laid with the bath at its heaviest and isn’t torn the first time it’s used.
Common problems we fix in Hog Hatch
Older sealant shrinks and hardens. Along worktops it tends to pull back from the wall, leaving a thin gap where water and food collect. Hot pans and harsh cleaners do not help.
Look out for any of the following:
- A reseal done over the top of the old bead
- Mouldy sealant that has gone black
- Gaps between the worktop and the wall
- Smears of silicone across the tiles
Letting a property close to Farnham station? Then mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets.

For landlords and businesses
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.
Landlords and letting agents in Hog Hatch can book us as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants is a simple way to keep a property in good order before the next move-in.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Give the silicone its full cure time
- Keep an eye on the corners, where splits start
- Clean with a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth
- Do not leave water standing on kitchen joints
Keep water off the new bead until it has cured, following the cure time we give you. Once it’s cured, wiping it down after use keeps it looking new.
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. If you spot one, it’s time to reseal.
