Bathroom Resealing in King's Somborne
Our applicators work in King's Somborne on bath, shower, basin, wet room, worktop and sink resealing. Old material cut out, joints cleaned and sealed neatly and every job guaranteed for a year.
- Shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop
- A joint torn by a bath that flexes
- Water escaping at the shower enclosure
What happens on the day
A visit follows a simple pattern: we check the joints, protect the area around them, do the work and clear up. It generally takes two to three hours for a typical bath, depending on how much old sealant there is. In a small place like King's Somborne, access is usually 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, usually around 24 hours.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

Asking for a quote is easy: let us know what needs doing and where, and roughly how big it is. A few pictures by email make the job easier to understand.

Bathroom resealing in King's Somborne
A reseal only lasts if the joint is properly prepared. The old sealant is removed to the last smear, after which the joint is degreased and any mould treated. Only once it’s dry does the new bead go on. Common call-outs are for lumpy, uneven sealant from a DIY attempt and mouldy sealant that has gone black, on shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & upstands.
Around King's Somborne, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

Common problems we fix in King's Somborne
Silicone needs a clean, dry surface without any grease to stick to. Soap residue, oils and leftover silicone film all get in the way, so a rushed job can start to lift early.

- Shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop
- Mouldy sealant that has gone black
- A reseal done over the top of the old bead
- A joint torn by a bath that flexes

Keeping the joints in good condition
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep scourers and sharp tools away from the bead
- Move toiletries away from the joint
- Check the joints every few months for splits or lifting
- Wait for the cure time we give you
Do not stand bottles along the bead, as they hold water against it. A quick squeegee after showering keeps water from sitting on the joint.
There’s no need to wait for a full refurbishment. Like paintwork, sealant needs renewing from time to time, and renewing it as soon as it fails protects everything around it.
Questions from King's Somborne
Is King's Somborne within the area you cover?
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.
I let a flat near Mottisfont & Dunbridge station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.
Is it worth trying it myself?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Always. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, and it’s something we never do.
Will you leave a mess?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we tidy up before we go.
Does someone need to be in?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
Is white the only colour available?
White, clear and a range of colours are available. Where the joint is on show, we match it to the surface.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done and we’ll quote it together.
Should I try it myself first?
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.
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Why it’s worth doing now in King's Somborne
You do not need a new bathroom because the sealant looks bad. A new bead often brings the whole room back, as long as the fittings themselves are sound. If something else is wrong, we’ll tell you. In a small place like King's Somborne, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
There are no prices on our website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
