Bathroom resealing in Little Tew

Why act early in Little Tew

You do not need a new bathroom because the sealant looks bad. Replacing the joint is generally all it takes, provided the bath, tray and tiles are in good order. If we find a deeper problem, you will hear it from us. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Little Tew, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

What it costs depends on the amount of work, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. You will have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

What you get with us

  • A sealant colour to suit the surroundings
  • Old sealant always removed completely
  • Over 20 years’ experience
  • Quality sealants from Arbo and Everbuild

Bathroom resealing for homes and businesses in Little Tew

Resealing is a small job that makes a big difference. Mouldy silicone makes even a new bathroom look neglected, and a neat new joint puts that right in a short visit. It also seals the gaps that let water behind the bath. If you’re dealing with gaps where the bath or tray has moved and shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop, we can help, whatever the surface.

Around Little Tew, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Oxfordshire.

Bathroom resealing in Little Tew: local notes

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

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

FAQs for Little Tew

Is bathroom resealing in Little Tew guaranteed?

All our work, in Little Tew and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We’re fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.

Can you do bathroom resealing in Little Tew?

Yes, Little Tew is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.

Do you work for letting agents?

Yes, regularly. We can quote for several properties at once.

Can you do several jobs on one visit?

Yes, we can. More than one area can go on one quote.

Will it make a mess?

We keep the work tidy. We protect what’s around the joints.

How long does the new silicone need before I use the shower?

Usually after around 24 hours. We will tell you the cure time for the product we used.

Will there be a smell?

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

Is it worth trying it myself?

Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.

What we can’t put right

To be straight with you, some problems need a different trade:

  • Loose or hollow tiles, or failed tanking behind them
  • Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • A tray that rocks until it’s re-bedded

If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we seal

  • Sinks & splashbacks
  • Wet rooms
  • Baths
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Kitchen worktops & upstands
  • Shower trays & enclosures

Surface by surface

Kitchen worktops & upstands

Kitchen joints need more degreasing than bathroom ones, since cooking leaves a film that stops silicone sticking. The extra cleaning is what makes the bead last.

Shower trays & enclosures

A tray that rocks will split any sealant. We check for movement before we reseal, and tell you if it needs re-bedding first.

How to look after the new joints

After the cure time, these simple habits help:

  • Don’t leave water standing on kitchen joints
  • Keep the fan on for a while after bathing
  • Check the joints every few months for splits or lifting
  • Wait for the cure time we give you

Good ventilation does more than any cleaner. Run the extractor fan during and after a shower, so the bead dries out between uses.

A split bead lets water through every time the bath or shower is used. Over time that water reaches floors, walls and ceilings. Resealing early stops it.

Signs you need bathroom resealing in Little Tew

Sealing over old silicone is one of the commonest mistakes we find. New silicone will not bond to old silicone, so it peels, leaks and hides mould behind it.

People usually contact us after spotting something like this:

  • Cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone
  • Splits where the tray meets the wall
  • Leaking joints on a shower screen
  • Smears of silicone across the tiles

Managing a site like Great Tew County Primary School? Then its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

Questions to ask before you book

  • Is VAT in the price?
  • How the colour is chosen
  • Whether the sealant suits the joint
  • Is the old sealant removed completely?

10 questions to ask before booking

How it works

At the end, we look at the finished work together. The work normally takes a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers, depending on the size of the job. For a village or hamlet like Little Tew, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.

  1. We protect the area and cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We clean and degrease the joint and treat any mould.
  3. Once it’s dry, any bath is filled so the bead is laid with it at its heaviest.
  4. We apply anti-fungal sanitary silicone in one even bead and tool it neatly.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can get wet, normally after around 24 hours.

Preparing for the visit

  • On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
  • Mention if the joints have been sealed before
  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
