How we handle bathroom resealing in Hungerford
A reseal only lasts if the joint is properly prepared. The old sealant is removed to the last smear, then the joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould. New silicone goes on only when the joint is fully dry. If you have a messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal and a joint torn by a bath that flexes, we can put it right, on sinks & splashbacks, baths and wet rooms alike.
Smaller places like Hungerford still have plenty of bathrooms that work hard every day. Whether it’s a cottage bathroom or a newer en suite, the approach is the same: all the old material out, the joint cleaned and dried, then new sealant or grout.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

Hungerford questions
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Hungerford station?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before work begins.
Do you work in hotels near Hungerford?
Yes, we work for hotels as well as homes and businesses. A room-by-room programme keeps most rooms in use while the work goes on.
Can new silicone go straight over the old?
No. Fresh silicone can’t stick to the old bead, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. We always take the old sealant out completely.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, and it’s something we never do.
What information do you need?
Only a few details: the address or postcode, what’s wrong and any access issues. After that, simply ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.
Do I have to be there?
It depends on the job. Inside work needs someone to give us access, and for outside work we will agree access with you when we book.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Of course. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit, so mention them when you ask for a quote.
Do you come to Hungerford?
Yes. From our base in Crawley, we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
What bathroom resealing looks like in Hungerford
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings. Hungerford has hotels and guest accommodation nearby. Hotel bathrooms are part of our work as well as homes, and can be done room by room.
If you let a flat or house near Hungerford station, fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay. If you live in an older home near Church of St Lawrence, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

DIY versus a professional finish
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
What affects the quote in Hungerford
Jobs vary more than people expect. The main factors:
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- The number and length of the joints
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That’s why we ask a few questions first.
Asking for a quote
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- Whether it has been sealed before
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
Every job is quoted individually. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details, and photos are welcome.
How the visit works
You do not need to clear the whole room or building before we come, just the space around the work. We protect the rest, and the job takes two to three hours for a typical bath, depending on how much old sealant there is in most cases. For a job in Hungerford, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- We protect the area and cut out all of the old sealant.
- Next, the joint is cleaned and any mould is treated.
- We let it dry fully and fill the bath with water before sealing.
- A single bead of anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied and tooled smooth.
- We tidy up and give you the cure time, usually around 24 hours.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before

Landlords, agents and businesses in Hungerford
Letting agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements and we will give you a quote.
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. We can quote for more than one property at once.
How to look after the new joints
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Stick to a soft cloth and a mild cleaner
- Let new sealant cure fully before it gets wet
- Move toiletries away from the joint
- Wipe up water along the back of the worktop
Treat the new bead gently when you clean: warm soapy water and a soft cloth do the job. Avoid scouring pads and anything sharp, and a nicked bead lets mould in sooner.
Mould that starts as a few spots spreads through the bead. Once it’s deep in the silicone, cleaning normally won’t remove it, and nearby grout often goes the same way. Replacing the sealant early keeps the job small.
Common problems we fix in Hungerford
Sealant laid on a damp, dusty or greasy joint never bonds properly. Soap residue, oils and leftover silicone film all get in the way, and a joint that looked fine soon begins to come away.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Damp behind the bath or under the tray
- Shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop
- Splits where the tray meets the wall
- Mouldy sealant that has gone black
If you look after a building such as Hungerford Primary School, washroom and kitchen sealant there needs the same care as at home, and schools and businesses are part of our work as well as homes.
