Bathroom resealing in Little Wigborough

Bathroom resealing for homes and businesses in Little Wigborough

Before a bath is sealed, it’s filled with water. A full bath sits slightly lower than an empty one, so the new joint is not pulled apart the first time it’s used. It’s a small step that rushed reseals tend to skip. Typical jobs include black mould in the silicone that won’t clean off and water escaping at the shower enclosure, across basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & upstands.

Around Little Wigborough, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats. The work is the same as anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.

Our work is backed for twelve months, in Little Wigborough and everywhere else we cover.

Quotes for bathroom resealing in Little Wigborough

There’s no set price list, because jobs vary so much. The quote depends on:

  • Which sealant suits the joint
  • The old material and how stubborn it is
  • The number of rooms or windows
  • The number and length of the joints

We do not show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. Call for a quick quote and we will talk you through it.

Why act early in Little Wigborough

Running new silicone over the old joint can look tidy for a few weeks, but it cannot stick to what’s underneath. It lifts, traps water and grows mould behind it, and the next reseal means two layers to cut out. In a small place like Little Wigborough, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.

Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You will know the price before we begin.

Landlord and commercial work in Little Wigborough

Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. We can quote for more than one property at once.

Letting agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements.

DIY versus a professional finish

Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.

The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.

Bathrooms and kitchens in Little Wigborough

Little Wigborough is within about 2 miles of the coast. Near the coast, holiday lets and guest houses can see bathrooms used by one guest after another, which wears sealant and grout out faster than in a quiet home. Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.

Around Little Wigborough, as everywhere, bathroom resealing is only as good as the preparation behind it. Homes close to Church of St Stephen include some older properties, and timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

What the job involves on each surface

Basins & vanity units

A vanity top has a joint along the wall and sometimes at the sides. If water gets in, the cabinet underneath can swell, so the joint is sealed in one unbroken line.

Wet rooms

In a wet room, the joints between floor and walls take standing water. They get anti-fungal sanitary silicone, and our work is on the visible joints only.

How it works

A visit follows a simple pattern: we check the joints, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and clear up. Most jobs take a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen. Somewhere like Little Wigborough needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.

  1. We protect the area and cut out all of the old sealant, including the film left on the tiles.
  2. The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for 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. Finally we tidy up and explain the cure time before we leave.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
  • Clear the area around the work
  • For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in

Getting a quote

Asking for a quote is easy: let us know what needs doing and where and its rough size. A few photos by email make the job easier to understand.

Questions from Little Wigborough

What guarantee comes with bathroom resealing in Little Wigborough?

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

Will you come out to Little Wigborough?

Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.

Can new silicone go straight over the old?

No. New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, so it peels away and hides mould and water. All the old sealant comes out first.

Do I need to be at home?

We need access to the joints, so we’ll agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.

Can you reseal around my kitchen sink and worktop?

Yes. We reseal worktop upstands, sinks and splashbacks, in a kitchen-suitable sealant, matched to the worktop where it’s on show.

Is there any odour?

Possibly a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures.

Can landlords and businesses book you?

Yes. As well as householders, we work for landlords, agents, businesses and hotels in Little Wigborough.

Are you insured?

Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured, and we have been doing sealant work for more than 20 years.
