Bathroom resealing for Merton Park homes and businesses

Bathroom resealing in Merton Park

We fill the bath before sealing it. A full bath sits slightly lower than an empty one, so the new joint isn’t pulled apart the first time it’s used. It’s a small step that rushed reseals tend to skip. If you are dealing with black spots spreading through the bead and leaking joints on a shower screen, we can help, on sinks & splashbacks, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures alike.

Much of London’s older housing is Victorian and Edwardian terraces, many of them now split into flats, with bathrooms fitted into whatever space was available. A compact bathroom that steams up every day is hard on silicone and grout, and homes in Merton Park are no different.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

Do you need bathroom resealing in Merton Park?

Not every tube in the shop is meant for a shower. Acrylic caulk and general-purpose sealants aren’t designed for a joint that is wet every day, so they crack, discolour or grow mould quickly. Wet areas call for a sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive.

Common reasons people contact us are:

  • Cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone
  • Black mould in the silicone that will not clean off
  • A joint torn by a bath that flexes
  • Two layers of silicone, both failing

If you live in an older home near St Mary's Church, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

Before booking anyone

  • How the colour is chosen
  • How the joint is cleaned and prepared
  • Whether they seal over old material or remove it
  • How much experience the applicator has

Choosing a sealant specialist

Aftercare tips

To keep the joints looking good and working properly:

  • Wipe up water along the back of the worktop
  • Keep scourers and sharp tools away from the bead
  • Keep bottles off the sealant line
  • Let new sealant cure fully before it gets wet

Give the silicone time to cure before it gets wet, which is normally around 24 hours. After that, a quick wipe after showering helps keep it clean.

Do not wait for a refit to deal with failed sealant. Sealant is a maintenance item, like the paint on a window frame, and replacing it when it fails protects the rest of the room.

Landlord and commercial work in Merton Park

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

For anyone letting property in or around Merton Park, several properties can be quoted together. Just tell us the addresses and what each one needs.

Different surfaces, different methods

Wet rooms

Wet rooms rely on sound joints at floor and wall junctions. They’re resealed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone, and our work is on the visible joints only.

Shower trays & enclosures

Water often gets past the wall profile of a shower enclosure. It’s resealed along with the tray joints, sealing the side the enclosure’s instructions call for.

What affects the quote in Merton Park

For a quick quote, just ask. What matters most is:

  • How many areas need sealing
  • The size of the job
  • Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
  • When we can work, for business premises

What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we ask a few questions first.

What we need to know

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:

  • How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
  • A few photos by email, if you can
  • Where the job is, and your postcode
  • Whether it has been sealed before

Call for a quick quote, or email us if that is easier. Describe what needs sealing and we will explain what’s involved.

Questions from Merton Park

Can parking be tricky for a visit in Merton Park?

Parking in Merton Park, as in most of London, takes a little planning: a visitor permit or a bay close to the door helps a lot.

Do you work for landlords with property near South Merton station?

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

Do you work for hotels and businesses?

Yes. Larger jobs can be planned room by room or area by area to suit the site.

Do you hold any approvals?

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

How long does a bath or shower reseal take?

One bath or shower is around two hours’ work, including cutting out the old sealant. A full bathroom and kitchen can take most of a day.

Is it OK to put new sealant on top of the old bead?

No. Fresh silicone can’t stick to the old bead, so it peels away and hides mould and water. We always take the old sealant out completely.

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

We give you the cure time before we leave, and it’s normally around 24 hours. Getting it wet too early can spoil the new joint.

Will it make a mess?

Not at all. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.

Bathroom resealing in Merton Park: local notes

London has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and taps, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in. London has a lot of flats and conversions, and a failed shower or bath seal in one can show up on the ceiling below, which is why it’s worth fixing early.

Letting a property close to South Merton station? Then a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for. Schools such as Merton Park Primary School are buildings too, and its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

Honest limits

We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what sealant cannot put right:

  • A bath or tray that moves because it isn’t properly supported
  • Cracked or missing grout between tiles (that is regrouting)
  • Damage behind the tiles that needs a tiler

If you’re not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What happens on the day

All our tools and materials come with us in the van. Once we have agreed what’s being done, the area is protected and the work begins. It normally takes half a day or less for one room, longer when the kitchen is included. For a job in Merton Park, parking and access are the things to plan: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space, which floor we’re working on and whether there’s a lift.

  1. We look at every joint first and check for movement or leaks.
  2. Every trace of the old bead is removed, including the thin smear 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. The bead is tooled smooth and you’re told the cure time, normally around 24 hours.

Getting ready for the visit

  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
  • Clear the area around the work
  • Let us know about parking restrictions
