Aftercare tips
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep an eye on the corners, where splits start
- Dry worktop joints after washing up
- Avoid abrasive pads on the sealant
- Keep bottles off the sealant line
Clean the silicone with care: a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth is enough. Scourers and blades can nick the surface, because a damaged bead gives mould a foothold.
Mould that starts as a few spots spreads through the bead. Once it’s deep in the silicone, cleaning usually will not remove it. Catching it early keeps it a simple reseal.
How we handle bathroom resealing in Outwood
The bead of silicone around a bath, tray or worktop is what keeps water out of the gaps. When it splits, shrinks or turns black, water gets behind it. Every trace of the old sealant is taken out and replaced with anti-fungal sanitary silicone. We work on kitchen worktops & upstands, baths and wet rooms, and people most often call us about black spots spreading through the bead and lumpy, uneven sealant from a DIY attempt.
Being in a small place like Outwood makes no difference to the job itself: the journey and access are simply agreed in advance. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.
Our work is backed for twelve months.

What else we do in Outwood
Should I try it myself first?
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
Different surfaces, different methods
Kitchen worktops & upstands
Worktop joints get wet and wiped every day. The new bead is colour-matched where it shows, so the line doesn’t stand out.
Shower trays & enclosures
There are usually two jobs in a shower: the tray-to-wall joint and the enclosure joints. Both get soaked every time the shower runs, so both are resealed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone.
What happens if it’s left?
A quick bead over the top of the old one might look better for a while, but it cannot stick to what’s underneath. It lifts, traps water and grows mould behind it. Older cottages and farmhouses around Outwood can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Combining jobs into one visit normally makes better use of the time than several visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. You’ll get one clear quote for the whole job.

Outwood homes and their sealant
Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
If you let a flat or house near Salfords station, fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay. For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St John the Baptist, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. Managing a site like Oakwood School? Then its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

Outwood questions
Do you work for landlords with property near Salfords station?
Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as householders. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Do you cover Outwood for bathroom resealing?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Outwood is part of that. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job.
Can new silicone go straight over the old?
No, and it’s one of the main reasons reseals fail. We cut out all of the old sealant, clean the joint and start again.
How do I get a quote for bathroom resealing in Outwood?
We do not publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. You will get a clear quote before we start.
Do you guarantee your resealing?
Yes, for 12 months. Good ventilation and gentle cleaning help it last.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We’re ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, always, and completely. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so the joint is cleaned back first.
Where are you based?

The process
We bring everything the job needs with us. Once we’ve agreed what’s being done, we protect the area and start. It normally takes a couple of hours for a single bath or shower. For a village or hamlet like Outwood, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We start by protecting the area and stripping out the old bead, including the film left on the tiles.
- We clean and degrease the joint and treat any mould.
- The joint is left to dry, and baths are filled with water first.
- We apply anti-fungal sanitary silicone in one even bead and tool it neatly.
- We tidy up and give you the cure time, normally around 24 hours.
Before we arrive
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
