Bathroom resealing in Mid Lavant

Across Mid Lavant, the joints we reseal are the ones that fail in any home: bath edges, tray joints, basin backs and kitchen upstands. Each one is stripped, cleaned and dried before new silicone goes in. We work on kitchen worktops & upstands, sinks & splashbacks and wet rooms, and the jobs we see most are water getting behind the bath panel and leaking joints on a shower screen.

Somewhere as small as Mid Lavant, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Movement in older walls and floors tends to show first as cracked grout or split sealant.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

What affects the cost of bathroom resealing

Call for a quick quote. The main things that affect it are:

  • Any mould that needs treating
  • The type of sealant required
  • When we can work, for business premises
  • How easy the joints are to reach

Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part, and we will explain the quote if you ask.

Asking for a quote

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

  • Whether it’s a home or a business
  • Whether it has been sealed before
  • A few photos by email, if you can
  • What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking

We don’t publish a price list, because every job is different. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To get started, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.

How the job changes by surface

Sinks & splashbacks

Water getting under the rim of an inset sink can soak the worktop. Where the sealant around the visible edge has failed, we renew it.

Baths

Acrylic baths give a little under load, while steel and cast iron baths move less but still settle when full. Filling the bath first allows for that movement.

Bathrooms and kitchens in Mid Lavant

Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in. There are hotels and other places to stay in and around Mid Lavant. Hotel bathrooms are part of our work as well as homes, and can be done room by room.

If you live in an older home near Church of St Nicholas, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. Rented homes near Fishbourne station change hands often, and fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay.

Your questions about bathroom resealing in Mid Lavant

Will you come out to Mid Lavant?

Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.

Can you help a landlord with a rental near Fishbourne station?

Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as homeowners, and several properties can go on one quote. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.

Can you do several jobs on one visit?

Yes, and it often makes sense. Doing several areas at once is normally more efficient, so mention them when you ask for a quote.

Can you reseal around my kitchen sink and worktop?

Yes. The old sealant is cut out and the joint degreased, because cooking grease stops silicone sticking, then a colour-matched bead is laid.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.

Do you take out the old sealant first?

Always. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, so we never do it.

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

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

Can you get rid of the black mould in my sealant?

Yes, by replacing the sealant. Sprays can fade the marks, but cutting it out and resealing is what lasts. Airing the room well helps stop it returning.

Common problems we fix in Mid Lavant

Plenty of failed sealant has been laid over the top of older sealant. New silicone will not bond to old silicone, so it lifts, lets water in and traps mould underneath.

People normally contact us when they notice something like this:

  • Water escaping at the shower enclosure
  • Sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away
  • Black mould in the silicone that won’t clean off
  • Gaps between the worktop and the wall

Managing a site like Lavant CofE 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.

What your quote should include

  • How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
  • What happens if the job turns out different
  • Who turns up on the day
  • What guarantee comes with the work

Our hiring checklist

What we do, step by step

We work through the job in order: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. Typically it takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom and we leave things clean and tidy. In a small place like Mid Lavant, access is generally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. Protection goes down around the bath, shower or worktop.
  2. We cut away the old sealant and clean off what’s left.
  3. Mould is treated, then the joint is left to dry thoroughly.
  4. Any bath is filled with water, then we lay a bead of anti-fungal silicone in white, clear or a matching colour.
  5. We finish the joint, clear up and tell you how long to leave it before it gets wet.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the joints have been sealed before
  • Clear the area around the work
  • Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

Leave it or put it right?

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

The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That’s why we ask about the job first and agree the price before starting.

What you get with us

  • Tidy, careful work
  • We agree the colour with you first
  • More than 20 years in sealant work
  • Arbo and Everbuild products

Should I try it myself first?

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

The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.

Landlord and commercial work in Mid Lavant

We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.

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