Parkeston questions
I let a flat near Harwich International station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. Just ring 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 in hotels near Parkeston?
Yes, hospitality work, including hotels, is part of what we do. Jobs can be programmed room by room, with out-of-hours working possible to arrange.
What do you put in the joint?
The product depends on the job: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Is it worth trying it myself?
It depends on the job. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs.
How long does it take to reseal a bath or shower?
That depends on the number of joints and the state of the old sealant. Allow a couple of hours for a typical bath or shower.
Do I need to be at home?
It depends on the job. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in.
Is there any odour?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure. Ventilation helps.
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 we reseal in a colour to suit.
Different surfaces, different methods
Basins & vanity units
Basins take less water than showers, but the joint behind them is splashed every day. Old sealant there often goes black at the corners, so it’s cut out and renewed just like a bath joint.
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.

- Working hours on commercial sites
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- Which sealant suits the joint
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference.

Why deal with it now?
The difference in a professional reseal is mostly what you don’t see: removing all the old sealant, degreasing the joint, treating mould and drying it properly. Skip those steps and even the best silicone fails early. Around Parkeston, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs, plus any working-time requirements on site. Call for a quick quote and we will go through it with you.

When it isn’t the sealant

- A cracked shower tray or bath (that needs repair or replacement)
- Cracked or missing grout between tiles (that’s regrouting)
- Water coming from the plumbing rather than the joint

Should I try it myself first?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
