Can I do it myself?

If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.

About our bathroom resealing in Lower Horsebridge

With over 20 years in the trade, we reseal baths, showers and kitchens in homes across Lower Horsebridge. We’re fully insured ARBOMaster approved applicators, and every job carries our one-year guarantee. We work on shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & upstands, and common reasons people get in touch are gaps between the worktop and the wall and sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away.

Somewhere as small as Lower Horsebridge, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Older walls and timber floors can move a little, and cracked grout and split sealant are often the first signs.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

When to call us in Lower Horsebridge

Black mould is behind a lot of resealing. Bathrooms without good ventilation keep the silicone damp for hours, and mould that has grown into the silicone usually will not clean off.

It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:

  • Splits where the tray meets the wall
  • Water getting behind the kitchen upstand
  • Mouldy sealant that has gone black
  • New sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting

If you let a flat or house near Polegate station, fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay.

Questions to ask before booking

  • How the joint is cleaned and prepared
  • What happens if the job turns out different
  • How the colour is chosen
  • What insurance they hold

Our hiring checklist

Surface by surface

Basins & vanity units

Vanity units have long, worktop-style joints against the wall. Water that gets behind can damage the unit, so a neat, continuous bead matters.

Shower trays & enclosures

There are generally two jobs in a shower: the tray-to-wall joint and the enclosure joints. Both take water every day, so both are resealed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone.

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple:

  • Clean with a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth
  • Squeegee the walls and tray after use
  • Keep the fan on for a while after bathing
  • Keep bottles off the sealant line

Keep bottles and razors off the sealant line, as they hold water against it. A quick squeegee after showering keeps water from sitting on the joint.

Worktop joints fail quietly. Water gets behind the upstand and into the edge of a laminate worktop, where it can make the board swell. Resealing before that happens protects the worktop.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lower Horsebridge

We also work for property managers and facilities teams. Several sites can go on one quote, and we’re fully insured.

Letting agents and landlords in Lower Horsebridge can book us as well as householders. Resealing between tenancies keeps a property looking cared for before the next move-in.

What we do, step by step

You don’t need to clear the whole room or building before we come, just the space around the work. We protect the rest, and the work takes two to three hours for a typical bath, depending on how much old sealant there is in most cases. Somewhere like Lower Horsebridge 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 look at every joint first and check for movement or leaks.
  2. The old silicone is cut out completely, along with the film it leaves on the tiles.
  3. Joints are degreased and any mould is treated.
  4. With the joint dry, and any bath loaded with water, a single bead of anti-fungal silicone is applied.
  5. We tool the bead to a neat finish and give you the cure time, normally around 24 hours.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
  • Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
  • On commercial sites, let us know about site rules

Advice

What bathroom resealing looks like in Lower Horsebridge

Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.

In the older streets around Zoar Strict Baptist Chapel, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. Managing a site like Hellingly Community Primary School? Then washroom and kitchen sealant there needs the same care as at home, and schools and businesses are part of our work as well as homes.
