How we handle bathroom resealing in Howe Green

A shower joint gets soaked every day. Trays, enclosures, screen profiles and wet room floors all need a flexible, waterproof seal. They’re resealed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone, tooled smooth so water runs off instead of sitting in a ridge. If you are dealing with smears of silicone across the tiles and failed sealant on the screen profile, we can help, whatever the surface.

In a village or hamlet like Howe Green, homes are often older cottages and farmhouses alongside a few newer houses. Movement in older walls and floors tends to show first as cracked grout or split sealant.

A 12-month guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

What sealant work can’t fix

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Cracks in the tray itself rather than the joint
  • Water getting in through the grout rather than the sealant
  • A bath or tray that moves because it isn’t properly supported

Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll tell you honestly.

Will you come out to Howe Green?

Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.

Are you fully insured?

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

What happens on the day

Good joint work is mostly preparation, and we don’t rush it. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. All told, the work takes half a day or less for one room, longer when the kitchen is included. Somewhere like Howe Green needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.

  1. Protection goes down around the bath, shower or worktop.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any tricky access
  • Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
  • Clear items away from the joints we are working on

Bathrooms and kitchens in Howe Green

Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.

Schools such as The Sandon School are buildings too, and we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Andrew, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. Rented homes near Chelmsford 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.

Howe Green is about 3 miles south-east of Chelmsford, in Essex. Every kind of property in Howe Green is covered for bathroom resealing. Every job comes with our one-year guarantee. Howe Green is one of 644 towns and villages in Essex where we work for bathroom resealing.

Can I do it myself?

Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.

A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

Aftercare tips

A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:

  • Run the extractor fan during and after every shower
  • Stick to a soft cloth and a mild cleaner
  • Look for lifting corners and small gaps now and then
  • Let new sealant cure fully before it gets wet

Give the silicone time to cure before it gets wet, which is normally around 24 hours. Once it’s cured, wiping it down after use keeps it looking new.

Small signs come before a leak: 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 the job involves on each surface

Wet rooms

Not every wet room leak is a sealant problem. We reseal the joints and will tell you if the water seems to be coming from somewhere else.

Baths

A bath shifts slightly every time it’s filled, so it’s filled with water before the bead goes on. The joint is then laid with the bath at its lowest point and isn’t stretched when it’s used.

Leave it or put it right?

A quick bead over the top of the old one might look better for a while, but it can’t stick to what’s underneath. Water creeps under it and mould follows. Around Howe Green, older homes often have timber in their 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. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.
