Sealant that’s mouldy, cracked or peeling is worth sorting before it lets water through. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a photo of the joints, and we’ll give you a clear price for bathroom resealing in Hornestreet. We are often asked to deal with water getting behind the bath panel and a reseal done over the top of the old bead, on wet rooms, basins & vanity units and baths.

If you manage several properties in or around Hornestreet, several properties can be quoted together. Send us the addresses and the work at each.
We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for before the next move-in.
How we quote for bathroom resealing
There’s no set price list, because no two jobs are the same. What we look at:
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Which sealant suits the joint
- Working hours on commercial sites
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.
Helping us quote
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- Photos by email, if that is easy
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- Where the property is

Do you need bathroom resealing in Hornestreet?
With age, silicone loses its stretch. Along worktops it tends to pull back from the wall, opening a hairline gap that lets water and crumbs in. Heat from the hob and strong sprays speed it along.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Gaps between the worktop and the wall
- Splits where the tray meets the wall
- Two layers of silicone, both failing
- Black mould in the silicone that will not clean off
Managing a site like Langham Primary School? Then we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.
Questions to ask before you book
- How long to leave it before use
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
- Is VAT in the price?
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are

How it works
At the end, we look at the finished work together and explain the cure time. The visit itself normally takes a couple of hours for a single bath or shower, depending on the size of the job. In a small place like Hornestreet, access is normally 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.
- The old silicone is cut out completely, along with the film it leaves on the tiles.
- The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
- When the joint is dry, and a bath has been filled with water, the new silicone goes on.
- We tool the bead to a neat finish and give you the cure time, generally around 24 hours.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Mention any parking rules near the property

Advice
Why act early in Hornestreet
A failed joint gets more costly to put right the longer it’s left. Once water is behind the bath, it can reach floorboards, panels and the ceiling underneath, turning a small job into a building repair. Around Hornestreet, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Doing several joints on one visit usually makes better use of the time than several visits. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.

DIY versus a professional finish
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

Is Hornestreet in your area for bathroom resealing?
Yes, Hornestreet is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing.
Is Hornestreet within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
When can I use the bath or shower again?
Around 24 hours is typical, and we confirm the time for the product used. Getting it wet too early can spoil the new joint.
Do you reseal kitchen worktops and sinks too?
Yes. Next to the sink we use a food-safe product where it’s needed.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the product. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all.
What colours of sealant can you use?
You are not limited to white: white, clear and colours to suit tiles and worktops. We’ll talk it through when we quote.
Can tenants book the work?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are glad to have it sorted.
What does bathroom resealing cost?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. You will get a clear quote before we start.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, there are a few things sealant will not fix:
- Damage behind the tiles that needs a tiler
- Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Cracks in the tray itself rather than the joint
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll say what we think before you book.
