Bathroom resealing in Little Tey, done properly

The bead of silicone around a bath, tray or worktop is what keeps water out of the gaps. When it splits, shrinks or turns black, water gets behind it. Every trace of the old sealant is taken out and replaced with anti-fungal sanitary silicone. We work on kitchen worktops & upstands, baths and sinks & splashbacks, and common reasons people get in touch are a joint torn by a bath that flexes and a messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal.

In a village or hamlet like Little Tey, homes are often older cottages and farmhouses alongside a few newer houses. Older walls and timber floors can move a little, and cracked grout and split sealant are often the first signs.

All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

Signs you need bathroom resealing in Little Tey

Mould is the reason many people want their sealant replaced. Steamy rooms that do not dry out give mould all the damp it needs, and mould that has grown into the silicone usually will not clean off.

The most common problems we see are:

  • A messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal
  • Shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop
  • A reseal done over the top of the old bead
  • Splits where the tray meets the wall

Questions from Little Tey

I let a flat near Marks Tey station. Can you help?

Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before any work starts.

Do you cover Little Tey for bathroom resealing?

Yes, Little Tey is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job.

How long will the resealing take?

Allow a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen. We will confirm how long your job needs when we quote.

Will it make a mess?

No. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.

Are you an approved applicator?

Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status and we’re fully insured too.

Is white the only colour available?

We can use white, clear or a colour to suit. Where the joint is on show, we match it to the surface.

Do I need to be at home?

If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What do you put in the joint?

Each joint gets the product that suits it. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice, and we’ll tell you what we are using.

Honest limits

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Movement from a bath with loose feet or no proper support
  • A leaking waste, trap or valve
  • Failed grout lines across the wall

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

Surfaces we seal

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

Should I try it myself first?

Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.

The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

For landlords and businesses

Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.

Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.

Bathroom resealing around Little Tey

Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.

Managing a site like Honywood Community Science School? Then its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. If you live in an older home near Church of St James, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

How it works

We bring everything the job needs with us. After a quick look at the joints together, the area is protected and the work begins. It normally takes a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen. Somewhere like Little Tey needs a little journey planning: 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. A single bead of anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied and tooled smooth.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can get wet, generally after around 24 hours.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the work area
  • Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
  • For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in

Ask for a quote

We quote each job on its own, so the first step is telling us about yours. Simply phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and describe the job, and pictures are welcome.

Looking after it afterwards

After the cure time, these simple habits help:

  • Stick to a soft cloth and a mild cleaner
  • Dry worktop joints after washing up
  • Never pick at the silicone with a blade
  • Move toiletries away from the joint

Clean the silicone with care: warm soapy water and a soft cloth do the job. Avoid scouring pads and anything sharp, because a damaged bead gives mould a foothold.

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.

How the job changes 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.

Wet rooms

Not every wet room leak is a sealant problem. We check the joints and say so if the fault looks to be elsewhere.
