Why act early in Plaitford Green
A failed joint gets more costly to put right the longer it’s left. Once water is behind the bath, it can reach floorboards, panels and the ceiling underneath, turning a small job into a building repair. In a small place like Plaitford Green, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs. Call for a quick quote and we will explain what it covers.

How we quote for bathroom resealing
We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Working hours on commercial sites
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- The type of sealant required
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.
Helping us quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Photos by email, if that is easy
- Where the job is, and your postcode
To get a quote, call 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us where the job is and what the problem looks like. You will have a clear quote before work begins.
Looking after it afterwards
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Look for lifting corners and small gaps now and then
- Keep scourers and sharp tools away from the bead
- Let new sealant cure fully before it gets wet
- Open a window or run the fan so the room dries
Don’t stand bottles along the bead, as they hold water against it. Squeegeeing the walls and tray after use helps the joint dry.
There’s no need to wait for a full refurbishment. Sealant is a maintenance item, like the paint on a window frame, and replacing it when it fails protects the rest of the room.

FAQs for Plaitford Green
Do you cover smaller places like Plaitford Green?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Mottisfont & Dunbridge station?
Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as homeowners. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.
Can I choose the colour of the sealant?
White, clear and a range of colours are available. Where the joint is on show, we match it to the surface.
Is it messy?
We keep the work tidy. We protect what’s around the joints, and we clear up when we are done.
How long does a bath or shower reseal take?
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, while outside work can sometimes be arranged differently.
When can I use the bath or shower again?
The surface skins over fairly quickly, but the bead needs longer to cure right through. Leave it around 24 hours before it gets wet, or as long as we advise for that product.
Which products do you use?
The product depends on the job: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
What we’re called out for in Plaitford Green
Older sealant shrinks and hardens. Along worktops it tends to pull back from the wall, leaving a thin gap where water and food collect. Hot pans and harsh cleaners don’t help.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Smears of silicone across the tiles
- Water escaping at the shower enclosure
- Cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone
- Splits where the tray meets the wall
Homes close to Church of St Leonard include some older properties, and bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.
Questions to ask before booking
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- Whether VAT is included
- What product goes in the joint
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
DIY versus a professional finish
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
The process
All our tools and materials come with us in the van. Once we have agreed what’s being done, the area is protected and the work begins. Most jobs take two to three hours for a typical bath, depending on how much old sealant there is. In a small place like Plaitford Green, access is generally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We look at every joint first and check for movement or leaks.
- The old silicone is cut out completely, along with the film it leaves on the tiles.
- Joints are degreased and any mould is treated.
- With the joint dry, and any bath loaded with water, a single bead of anti-fungal silicone is applied.
- We tool the bead to a neat finish and give you the cure time, normally around 24 hours.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
