Why deal with it now?

Running new silicone over the old joint can look tidy for a few weeks, but it won’t bond. It lifts, traps water and grows mould behind it. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Leaden Roding, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs, plus any working-time requirements on site. Ask us for a quote and we will go through it with you.

Bathroom resealing for homes and businesses in Leaden Roding

Across Leaden Roding, the joints we reseal are the ones that fail in any home: the long edge of the bath, the base of the shower tray, the back of the basin and the line along the worktop. Each one is stripped, cleaned and dried before new silicone goes in. We work on sinks & splashbacks, kitchen worktops & upstands and basins & vanity units, and the jobs we see most are cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone and damp behind the bath or under the tray.

Somewhere as small as Leaden Roding, 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.

We stand behind the work with a 12-month guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once the job is done.

Your questions about bathroom resealing in Leaden Roding

Do you cover Leaden Roding for bathroom resealing?

Yes, Leaden Roding is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing.

Will you come out to Leaden Roding?

Yes, Leaden Roding is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.

What should I tell you?

Only a few details: where it is, what you’ve noticed and how we reach it. Then call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

Do you take out the old sealant first?

Yes, every time. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so the joint is cleaned back first.

Do the sealants smell?

That depends on the sealant. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little.

How long before the new sealant can get wet?

After around 24 hours in most cases. You will get the exact cure time before we leave.

Is white the only colour available?

You’re not limited to white: white, clear and colours to suit tiles and worktops. We can help you pick when we quote.

Is it messy?

No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we tidy up before we go.

Common problems we fix in Leaden Roding

Sealing over old silicone is one of the commonest mistakes we find. Fresh silicone can’t grip the old bead underneath, so it lifts, lets water in and traps mould underneath.

Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:

  • Damp behind the bath or under the tray
  • Mouldy sealant that has gone black
  • Water getting behind the kitchen upstand
  • Leaking joints on a shower screen

For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Rodings 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.

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether the sealant suits the joint
  • How the colour is chosen
  • How long the guarantee is
  • Whether all the old sealant comes out first

Choosing a sealant specialist

Can I do it myself?

If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.

Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.

What bathroom resealing looks like in Leaden Roding

Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.

In the older streets around Parish Church of St Michael and All Angels, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

How we quote for bathroom resealing

Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:

  • Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
  • The number of rooms or windows
  • Access and height
  • Working hours on commercial sites

Leaving a failed joint generally makes the job bigger, not smaller. If you’re unsure, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.

What to tell us for a quote

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:

  • The problem you’ve noticed
  • If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
  • The rough size of the job
  • Whether it has been sealed before

Call for a quick quote, or email us if that’s easier. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we will talk you through the work before giving you a price.

Landlord and commercial work in Leaden Roding

Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.

In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so the work can be planned room by room. We have worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.

When something else is needed

New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant won’t put right:

  • Cracked or missing grout between tiles (that’s regrouting)
  • A tray or bath that is cracked through
  • A leaking waste, trap or valve

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

The process

Our applicators work methodically: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. Typically it takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom, and the area is left clean. Somewhere like Leaden Roding needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.

  1. First the area is protected and every bit of old sealant removed.
  2. We clean and degrease the joint and treat any mould.
  3. The joint is left to dry, and baths are filled with water first.
  4. We apply anti-fungal sanitary silicone in one even bead and tool it neatly.
  5. Finally we tidy up and explain the cure time before we leave.

Before we arrive

  • Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
  • Tell us if parking is tricky
  • Keep children and pets away from the work area
