Looking after it afterwards

A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:

  • Let new sealant cure fully before it gets wet
  • Avoid abrasive pads on the sealant
  • Don’t leave water standing on kitchen joints
  • Stick to a soft cloth and a mild cleaner

In a kitchen, do not let water sit along the back of the worktop and keep hot pans off the bead. A dry joint lasts longer.

Mould that starts as a few spots spreads through the bead. When it has grown right through, it rarely cleans out, and nearby grout often goes the same way. Replacing the sealant early keeps the job small.

How we handle bathroom resealing in Little Bookham

Homes in Little Bookham have the same weak spots as anywhere else: the long edge of the bath, the base of the shower tray, the back of the basin and the line along the worktop. Every joint is cut out, cleaned and left dry before it’s resealed. We work on shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & upstands, and people most often call us about a messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal and splits where the tray meets the wall.

Homes around Little Bookham range from older cottages to more recent houses. In older homes, walls and floors can move a little more, so the right flexible sealant matters.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Common problems we fix in Little Bookham

Mould is the reason many people want their sealant replaced. Steamy rooms that don’t dry out give mould all the damp it needs, and once it has grown into the bead, cleaning rarely gets it out.

Look out for these signs:

  • Leaking joints on a shower screen
  • Leaks into the floor or ceiling below
  • Two layers of silicone, both failing
  • Black spots spreading through the bead

If you live in an older home near Church of St Lawrence, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

What your quote should include

  • What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
  • Whether you can choose the colour
  • Is VAT in the price?
  • How the joint is cleaned and prepared

Our hiring checklist

Can I do it myself?

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 doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.

The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.

Little Bookham homes and their sealant

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.

For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Howard of Effingham School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. If you let a flat or house near Bookham station, fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay.

The process

There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The job generally takes a couple of hours for a single bath or shower from start to finish. Parking around Little Bookham is generally easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. If the job is outside, tell us about side access and how high the joints are.

  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. We finish the joint, clear up and tell you how long to leave it before it gets wet.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the joints have been sealed before
  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
  • Move anything stored near the joints

Advice

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so the work can be planned room by room. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Tell us the address, the job and how access works and we will quote.

What the job involves on each surface

Wet rooms

If a wet room leaks, the cause may be the tanking or the drain rather than the joints. We check the joints and say so if the fault looks to be elsewhere.

Baths

Acrylic baths flex the most, while steel and cast iron baths move less but still settle when full. Loading the bath with water before sealing allows for it.

Common questions in Little Bookham

Do you work for landlords with property near Bookham station?

Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear price.

Is Little Bookham within the area you cover?

Yes. Little Bookham 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.

Can you get rid of the black mould in my sealant?

Yes. We strip the bead, treat the joint and lay new anti-fungal silicone.

Do you work for hotels and businesses?

Yes. We can plan bigger jobs in stages to suit the site.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done.

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.

Will there be a smell?

Sometimes, a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.

What colours of sealant can you use?

We can use white, clear or a colour to suit. On a worktop we colour-match where the joint shows.

When something else is needed

In fairness, there are a few things sealant won’t fix:

  • Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Water getting in through the grout rather than the sealant
  • Loose or hollow tiles, or failed tanking behind them

If you are not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer.
