About our bathroom resealing in Northwood
Sealant is the soft line between a bath, shower or worktop and the wall. Once it cracks or goes mouldy, water starts to find its way through and into the wall or floor. Every trace of the old sealant is taken out and replaced with anti-fungal sanitary silicone. We work on basins & vanity units, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people get in touch are leaking joints on a shower screen and mouldy sealant that has gone black.
Being in a small place like Northwood makes no difference to the job itself: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

How it works
You do not need to clear the whole room or building, just the space around the work. We protect the rest, and the job takes a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers in most cases. Somewhere as small as Northwood, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- First, each joint is checked for movement and signs of water.
- Every trace of the old bead is removed, including the thin smear on the tiles.
- The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
- With the joint dry, and any bath loaded with water, a single bead of anti-fungal silicone is applied.
- The bead is tooled smooth and you are told the cure time, generally around 24 hours.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

Bathroom resealing in Northwood: local notes
Northwood is close to the coast. Near the coast, holiday lets and guest houses can see bathrooms used by one guest after another, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. There are hotels and other places to stay in and around Northwood. Hotel bathrooms are part of our work as well as homes, and can be done room by room.
For an older house near a landmark such as All Saints' Church, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

Common questions in Northwood
Do you cover smaller places like Northwood?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Do you work in hotels near Northwood?
Yes, we work for hotels as well as homes and businesses. A room-by-room programme keeps most rooms in use while the work goes on.
What information do you need?
Tell us what needs doing and where, plus pictures if you have them. We will ask anything else we need to know.
Can I choose the colour of the sealant?
There’s a choice: white, clear and colours to suit tiles and worktops. We’ll talk it through when we quote.
Where are you based?
We’re a Crawley-based firm, with over 20 years’ experience. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Should I try DIY first?
That depends on the joint. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional.
Can mouldy silicone be sorted out?
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.
What does bathroom resealing cost?
We don’t publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. We agree the price before any work begins.
Should I try it myself first?
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Quotes for bathroom resealing in Northwood

What we’re called out for in Northwood
A bath shifts a little every time it’s filled and emptied. Acrylic in particular gives slightly under the weight of water and a person, while a poorly supported tray can shift underfoot. Over time the joint tears or pulls away from the tile.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Smears of silicone across the tiles
- Splits where the tray meets the wall
- Failed sealant on the screen profile
- Water getting behind the bath panel
Managing a site like Northwood Primary School? Then we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

- The length of the guarantee

What sealant work can’t fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Cracked or missing grout between tiles (that’s regrouting)
- Loose or hollow tiles, or failed tanking behind them
- A tray that rocks until it’s re-bedded
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & upstands
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
- Sinks & splashbacks
Why deal with it now?
A failed joint gets more costly to put right the longer it’s left. Water that gets behind a bath soaks into the floor, the panel and sometimes the ceiling below, turning a small job into a building repair. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Northwood, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You will know the price before we begin.
