Questions from Leckhampstead
Is there a guarantee on bathroom resealing in Leckhampstead?
All our work, in Leckhampstead and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We’re fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Will you come out to Leckhampstead?
Yes, Leckhampstead is covered. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, always, and completely. New silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so the joint is cleaned back first.
Will there be a smell?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure. Ventilation helps.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We’re fully insured for every job we do.
Will you leave a mess?
Not at all. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.

How it works
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The job generally takes a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers. Somewhere as small as Leckhampstead, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- Protection goes down around the bath, shower or worktop.
- Old sealant is sliced away and the residue removed.
- We treat any mould and let the joint dry properly.
- Any bath is filled with water, then we lay a bead of anti-fungal silicone in white, clear or a matching colour.
- We finish the joint, clear up and tell you how long to leave it before it gets wet.
How to prepare
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:

- Cracks in the tray itself rather than the joint
- A tray that rocks until it’s re-bedded

What we’re called out for in Leckhampstead
Mould is the reason many people want their sealant replaced. Bathrooms without good ventilation keep the silicone damp for hours, and mould that has grown into the silicone normally won’t clean off.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Splits where the tray meets the wall
- Gaps between the worktop and the wall
- Two layers of silicone, both failing
- Damp behind the bath or under the tray
In and around Leckhampstead, as anywhere, good bathroom resealing starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.
What your quote should include
- What preparation is included
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- Who turns up on the day
- Is VAT in the price?
Keeping the joints in good condition
Aftercare is simple:
- Let new sealant cure fully before it gets wet
- Clean with a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth
- Check the joints every few months for splits or lifting
- Avoid abrasive pads on the sealant
In a kitchen, don’t let water sit along the back of the worktop and keep hot pans away from the silicone. The drier the joint stays, the longer it lasts.
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. Catching it early keeps it a simple reseal.
What bathroom resealing looks like in Leckhampstead
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
If you live in an older home near Church of St James, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.
Letting agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements.
Should I try it myself first?
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. Everything old must be removed first.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
