Bathroom resealing in Mystole

Bathroom resealing for homes and businesses in Mystole

Sealant is the soft line between a bath, shower or worktop and the wall. When it splits, shrinks or turns black, water gets behind it into walls, panels and floors. Our team cut the old bead out completely and lay a new one in anti-fungal sanitary silicone. Typical jobs include gaps between the worktop and the wall and two layers of silicone, both failing, on baths, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures.

Being in a small place like Mystole makes no difference to the job itself: the journey and access are simply agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the bathroom or kitchen gets the same care as anywhere else.

A 12-month guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after we have gone.

Common questions in Mystole

Do you work for landlords with property near Chartham station?

Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can go on one quote. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details for a clear quote.

Will you come out to Mystole?

Yes, Mystole is covered. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.

How long before the new sealant can get wet?

Silicone is touch-dry quite quickly, but it takes longer to cure. Leave it around 24 hours before it gets wet, or follow the cure time we give you.

Can new silicone go straight over the old?

No. Sealing over the top looks fine for a few weeks, then lifts, because silicone doesn’t bond to silicone. Every trace of the old bead is removed first.

Can you reseal around my kitchen sink and worktop?

Yes. We reseal worktop upstands, sinks and splashbacks, with a sealant suited to kitchens, colour-matched where it shows.

Which products do you use?

Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, chosen to suit the joint. We explain the product when we quote.

How long will the resealing take?

Allow half a day or less for one room, longer when the kitchen is included. You’ll know how long to expect before we start.

What should I tell you?

The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. If you can, email a few pictures.

What happens if it’s left?

Mould removers can fade the surface of a stained bead, but where mould is inside the silicone it generally comes back. Cutting it out and resealing with anti-fungal silicone is the fix that lasts. In a small place like Mystole, 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: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.

Why book with us

  • Colour agreed with you before work begins
  • Experience in homes, commercial sites and hotels
  • We’re fully insured
  • Trusted Arbo and Everbuild sealants

Read our cost guide or our reviews.

When it isn’t the sealant

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Movement from a bath with loose feet or no proper support
  • A cracked shower tray or bath (that needs repair or replacement)
  • Water coming from the plumbing rather than the joint

If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Where we work in Mystole

  • Kitchen worktops & upstands

For landlords and businesses

Landlords and agents in Mystole can book us as well as householders. Sealant work between tenants is a simple way to keep a property in good order before the next move-in.

Do you need bathroom resealing in Mystole?

A bath shifts a little every time it’s filled and emptied. An acrylic bath flexes under load, while a poorly supported tray can shift underfoot. Over time the joint tears or pulls away from the tile.

Look out for these signs:

  • A messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal
  • Gaps between the worktop and the wall
  • Black mould in the silicone that will not clean off
  • Leaking joints on a shower screen

In the older streets around Church of St Mary, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

What to look for in a quote

  • Is VAT in the price?
  • Is the old sealant removed completely?
  • What insurance they hold
  • What product goes in the joint

10 questions to ask before you book

Can I do it myself?

If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.

Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.

What affects the cost of bathroom resealing

Every job gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • Whether the work is at height
  • The type of sealant required
  • Working hours on commercial sites
  • How many rooms, windows or areas are involved

Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, along with when we can work on site. Call for a quick quote and we’ll explain what it covers.

Asking for a quote

To make quoting easier, please include:

  • Where the property is
  • The problem you’ve noticed
  • A few pictures by email, if you can
  • The rough size of the job

There’s no standard price list. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To arrange one, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.

How it works

Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you. The work normally takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom, depending on the size of the job. In a small place like Mystole, access is usually 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. Baths are filled first, then anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied in a colour to suit.
  5. The joint is finished neatly and we explain when it can get wet.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking restrictions
  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any tricky access
