Bathroom resealing near Petteridge

Bathroom resealing in Petteridge

Resealing is a small job that makes a big difference. Mouldy silicone makes even a new bathroom look neglected, and a clean white or clear joint fixes it quickly. It also seals the gaps that let water behind the bath. If you have lumpy, uneven sealant from a DIY attempt and water getting behind the bath panel, we can put it right, on baths, kitchen worktops & upstands and shower trays & enclosures alike.

In a village or hamlet like Petteridge, homes are often older cottages and farmhouses alongside a few newer houses. Older walls and timber floors can move a little, and cracked grout and split sealant are often the first signs.

Our work is backed for twelve months.

When it is not the sealant

We’d rather tell you now than do work that will not last, so here’s what sealant can’t put right:

  • A tray that rocks until it’s re-bedded
  • A tray or bath that is cracked through
  • Tiles that have come away from the wall

Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we seal

  • Sinks & splashbacks
  • Baths
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Kitchen worktops & upstands
  • Wet rooms
  • Shower trays & enclosures

Quotes for bathroom resealing in Petteridge

There’s no set price list. The quote depends on:

  • Working hours on commercial sites
  • Which sealant suits the joint
  • The number and length of the joints
  • How many rooms, windows or areas are involved

Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

Asking for a quote

To make quoting easier, let us know:

  • Roughly how big the job is
  • Any previous sealing or DIY work
  • Any access issues, like height or stairs
  • Whether it’s a home or a business

Asking for a quote is easy: tell us what needs doing and where, and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help us understand the job.

How it works

Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you. The visit itself usually takes half a day or less for one room, longer when the kitchen is included, depending on the size of the job. Somewhere as small as Petteridge, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. We protect the area and cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
  3. The joint is left to dry, and baths are filled with water first.
  4. New anti-fungal silicone goes on in a colour to suit and is tooled to a clean finish.
  5. We tidy up and give you the cure time, usually around 24 hours.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
  • Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
  • Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints

DIY sealant or a professional job?

Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.

What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.

Petteridge homes and their sealant

Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.

Rented homes near Paddock Wood station change hands often, and mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets. In the older streets around Ebenezer Church (Matfield), older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. Managing a site like Brenchley and Matfield Church of England Primary School? Then its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

What happens if it’s left?

A clean new bead makes a room look cared for, which matters if you’re letting a property or selling it. A smeared, uneven DIY bead does the opposite. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Petteridge, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.

Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, along with when we can work on site. Ask us for a quote and we will explain what it covers.

FAQs for Petteridge

Is Petteridge within the area you cover?

Yes. Petteridge is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.

Do you work for landlords with property near Paddock Wood station?

Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before we start.

Do you have insurance?

Yes. We are fully insured for every job we do.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done.

My sealant has gone black. Can you sort it?

Yes, we can. We strip the bead, treat the joint and lay new anti-fungal silicone.

Do the sealants smell?

It depends on the product. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all, and any smell fades as they cure.

Will the old sealant be removed?

Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, and it’s something we never do.

Are you an approved applicator?

Yes. We’re an ARBOMaster approved applicator, which is run for the Arbo sealant brand.

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:

  • Open a window or run the fan so the room dries
  • Keep scourers and sharp tools away from the bead
  • Don’t leave water standing on kitchen joints
  • Dry the bead with a towel now and then

Check the sealant now and then. Small splits and lifting ends are easy to catch early, so if something doesn’t look right, just call 0345 464 0079 or email us.

A few black dots in the silicone soon become a black line. When it has grown right through, it rarely cleans out. Catching it early keeps it a simple reseal.
