About our bathroom resealing in Jacobs Well
Sealant is the soft line between a bath, shower or worktop and the wall. When it splits, shrinks or turns black, water gets behind it and into the wall or floor. Our team cut the old bead out completely and lay a new one in anti-fungal sanitary silicone. If you have leaks into the floor or ceiling below and water getting behind the kitchen upstand, we can help, on sinks & splashbacks, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units alike.
For a small place like Jacobs Well, bathroom resealing is planned like any other job: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. Once we’re there, the bathroom or kitchen gets the same care as anywhere else.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, large or small.

What bathroom resealing looks like in Jacobs Well
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
If you let a flat or house near Worplesdon station, fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay. If you look after a building such as Weyfield Academy, 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. For an older house near a landmark such as St Peter's Church, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

Jacobs Well questions
Do you cover Jacobs Well for bathroom resealing?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Jacobs Well is part of that. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job, and we will give you a clear price.
Do you cover smaller places like Jacobs Well?
Yes. Jacobs Well is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
What information do you need?
Tell us what needs doing and where, plus pictures if you have them. If we need more, we will ask.
Is it worth trying it myself?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Do I have to be there?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. Indoors, that usually means someone at home.
Can you just seal over the old silicone?
No. New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, so it peels away and hides mould and water. We always take the old sealant out completely.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. Hotels, offices and other businesses use us.
Do you reseal kitchen worktops and sinks too?
Yes. Where it’s needed by the sink, we use a food-safe sealant.

How the job changes by surface
Baths
Acrylic baths give a little under load, while steel and cast iron baths move less but still settle when full. Filling the bath first allows for that movement.
Kitchen worktops & upstands
Kitchen joints need more degreasing than bathroom ones, because cooking grease stops sealant bonding. Proper degreasing is what helps the new joint last.
How it works
There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Show us the job and we will take it from there. The job generally takes a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers. For a village or hamlet like Jacobs Well, 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.
- We protect the area and cut out all of the old sealant.
- We clean and degrease the joint and treat any mould.
- We let it dry fully and fill the bath with water before sealing.
- We apply anti-fungal sanitary silicone in one even bead and tool it neatly.
- We clear away and tell you when it can get wet, usually after around 24 hours.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Mention any tricky access
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

Advice
DIY versus a professional finish
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Move toiletries away from the joint
- Run the extractor fan during and after every shower
- Never pick at the silicone with a blade
- Wait for the cure time we give you
In a kitchen, do not let water sit along the back of the worktop. The drier the joint stays, the longer it lasts.
Don’t wait for a refit to deal with failed sealant. Sealant is a maintenance item, like the paint on a window frame, and replacing it when it fails protects the rest of the room.
What sealant work can’t fix
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:
- A leaking waste, trap or valve
- A cracked shower tray or bath (that needs repair or replacement)
- A bath or tray that moves because it isn’t properly supported
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll say what we think.
