Bathroom resealing in Hungerford

Bathroom resealing in Hungerford, done properly

The bead of silicone around a bath, tray or worktop is what keeps water out of the gaps. Once it cracks or goes mouldy, water starts to find its way through into walls, panels and floors. Our team cut the old bead out completely and lay a new one in anti-fungal sanitary silicone. We work on sinks & splashbacks, shower trays & enclosures and baths, and people most often call us about new sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting and gaps between the worktop and the wall.

Somewhere as small as Hungerford, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Movement in older walls and floors tends to show first as cracked grout or split sealant.

You’re covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

Bathroom resealing in Hungerford: local notes

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

Rented homes near Twyford station change hands often, and mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets.

Hungerford questions

I let a flat near Twyford station. Can you help?

Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details for a clear quote.

Will you come out to Hungerford?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.

Should I try DIY first?

For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.

Can I choose the colour of the sealant?

White and clear are the most common choices, and other colours are available to suit tiles, trays and worktops. Tell us what you’d like when you get in touch.

Will it make a mess?

Tidy work is part of the job. Nearby surfaces are protected.

Can you just seal over the old silicone?

No. Fresh silicone cannot stick to the old bead, so it peels away and hides mould and water. All the old sealant comes out first.

Does someone need to be in?

We need access to the joints, so we’ll agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.

Are you an approved applicator?

Yes. We’re an ARBOMaster approved applicator, which is run for the Arbo sealant brand.

What we do, step by step

You don’t need to clear the whole room or building before we come, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the work takes two to three hours for a typical bath, depending on how much old sealant there is in most cases. For a village or hamlet like Hungerford, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.

  1. Protection goes down around the bath, shower or worktop.
  2. We cut away the old sealant and clean off what’s left.
  3. We treat any mould and let the joint dry properly.
  4. Any bath is filled with water, then we lay a bead of anti-fungal silicone in white, clear or a matching colour.
  5. The joint is finished neatly and we explain when it can get wet.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any water getting in
  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
  • Mention any parking rules near the property

Aftercare tips

After the cure time, these simple habits help:

  • Run the extractor fan during and after every shower
  • Keep scourers and sharp tools away from the bead
  • Move toiletries away from the joint
  • Wipe the sealant dry after showering

Have a look at the joints every few months. Small splits and lifting ends are easy to catch early, and if anything looks wrong, just call 0345 464 0079 or email us.

A failed kitchen joint is easy to miss. Splashes run behind the back edge and soak into the worktop, and the board underneath can swell. A reseal in time can save the worktop.

Do you need bathroom resealing in Hungerford?

Plenty of failed sealant has been laid over the top of older sealant. New silicone will not bond to old silicone, so it lifts, lets water in and traps mould underneath.

Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:

  • New sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting
  • A joint torn by a bath that flexes
  • A bead that has pulled away from the tiles
  • Black mould in the silicone that will not clean off

Schools such as Waltham St Lawrence Primary School are buildings too, and we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

Honest limits

We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Water getting in through the grout rather than the sealant
  • A bath or tray that moves because it is not properly supported
  • A leaking waste, trap or valve

If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we seal

  • Wet rooms
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Kitchen worktops & upstands
  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Sinks & splashbacks
  • Baths

How the job changes by surface

Sinks & splashbacks

Where a splashback meets the worktop, there’s a joint that catches every splash. It’s resealed in white, clear or a colour to suit.

Basins & vanity units

Basins take less water than showers, but the joint behind them is splashed every day. Old sealant there often goes black at the corners, and we treat it exactly as we would a bath.
