What happens on the day
On the day, we start by going over the job with you. We protect the surfaces around the joints before we start. Most jobs take around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom. In a small place like Paynes Green, access is generally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- First the area is protected and every bit of old sealant removed, including the film left on the tiles.
- The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
- We let it dry fully and fill the bath with water before sealing.
- New anti-fungal silicone goes on in a colour to suit and is tooled to a clean finish.
- Finally we tidy up and explain the cure time before we leave.
Before we arrive
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Clear the area around the work
- Mention any tricky access

Advice
Bathroom resealing in Paynes Green
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 into walls, panels and floors. Our team cut the old bead out completely and lay a new one in anti-fungal sanitary silicone. If you have water getting behind the kitchen upstand and black mould in the silicone that won’t clean off, we can put it right, on baths, sinks & splashbacks and kitchen worktops & upstands alike.
Somewhere as small as Paynes Green, 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 something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

Landlord and commercial work in Paynes Green
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so we plan the work room by room. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.
How we quote for bathroom resealing
There’s no set price list, because jobs vary so much. The quote depends on:
- How many areas need sealing
- Which sealant suits the joint
- The number and length of the joints
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.
Asking for a quote
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Where the property is
- How we’d reach the joints
- Whether it’s a home or a business
Getting a quote is simple: tell us what needs doing and where. A few photos by email make the job easier to understand.
Aftercare tips
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Use gentle cleaners on the silicone
- Check the joints every few months for splits or lifting
- Dry the bead with a towel now and then
- Give the silicone its full cure time
In a kitchen, don’t let water sit along the back of the worktop. A dry joint lasts longer.
Do not wait for a refit to deal with failed sealant. Sealant is a maintenance item, like the paint on a window frame, and renewing it as soon as it fails protects everything around it.
Paynes Green homes and their sealant
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
If you let a flat or house near Ockley station, mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets. Around Paynes Green, as everywhere, bathroom resealing is only as good as the preparation behind it.

Leave it or put it right?
Dealing with sealant early is a short job: the work takes a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen. Wait for a leak and you may be looking at panels off, drying out and redecorating too. Around Paynes Green, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part, and we will explain the quote if you ask.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
Paynes Green questions
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Ockley station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear price.
Is Paynes Green within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Do you guarantee your resealing?
Yes, for 12 months. Good ventilation and gentle cleaning help it last.
How long before the new sealant can get wet?
The surface skins over fairly quickly, but the bead needs longer to cure right through. Keep water off it for around 24 hours, or as long as we advise for that product.
Can you get rid of the black mould in my sealant?
Yes. Mould inside the bead rarely cleans out for good, so the bead comes out, the joint is treated and new anti-fungal silicone goes in.
Do I need to be at home?
We need access to the joints, so we’ll agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
Will it make a mess?
Tidy work is part of the job. We protect what’s around the joints.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. Hotels, offices and other businesses use us and we’re fully insured.
