How the visit works
At the end, we look at the finished work together and explain the cure time. The work normally takes half a day or less for one room, longer when the kitchen is included, depending on the size of the job. In a small place like Pleshey, access is generally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We protect the area and cut out all of the old sealant, including the film left on the tiles.
- We clean and degrease the joint and treat any 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

Quotes for bathroom resealing in Pleshey
The price is agreed before any work begins. It takes into account:
- Which sealant suits the joint
- How easy the joints are to reach
- Any mould that needs treating
- Any working-time requirements on site
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference, and we will explain the quote if you ask.
What to tell us for a quote
Photos help, but a description is a good start. Please mention:
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- How we’d reach the joints
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
We do not publish a price list. Instead, we give you a clear quote for your job. To get started, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.
Can I do it myself?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Pleshey questions
Can you do bathroom resealing in Pleshey?
Yes, Pleshey is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and let us know what needs doing.
Is Pleshey within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Can landlords and businesses book you?
Yes. We work for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, businesses and hotels across Essex.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, and it’s something we never do.
When can I use the bath or shower again?
Usually after around 24 hours. We’ll tell you the cure time for the product we used.
What sealant do you use?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, picked for each joint. We will tell you what we are using and why.
Is it OK to put new sealant on top of the old bead?
No. A bead laid over old silicone soon starts to come away, because silicone does not bond to silicone. Every trace of the old bead is removed first.
Is it messy?
Not at all. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.

Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Open a window or run the fan so the room dries
- Wait for the cure time we give you
- Move toiletries away from the joint
- Keep an eye on the corners, where splits start
Treat the new bead gently when you clean: warm soapy water and a soft cloth do the job. Avoid scouring pads and anything sharp, and a nicked bead lets mould in sooner.
Mould that starts as a few spots spreads through the bead. When it has grown right through, it rarely cleans out, and nearby grout often goes the same way. Replacing the sealant early keeps the job small.
Bathroom resealing in Pleshey: local notes
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.

Why deal with it now?
Running new silicone over the old joint can look tidy for a few weeks, but it will not bond. It lifts, traps water and grows mould behind it, and the next reseal means two layers to cut out. In a small place like Pleshey, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: 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’ll go through it with you.
What you get with us
- We leave the area clean and tidy
- Arbo and Everbuild products
- Sealant colour chosen to suit
- We never seal over old sealant
What we are called out for in Pleshey
Plenty of failed sealant has been laid over the top of older sealant. Fresh silicone can’t grip the old bead underneath, so it lifts, lets water in and traps mould underneath.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- A joint torn by a bath that flexes
- New sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting
- Damp behind the bath or under the tray
- Lumpy, uneven sealant from a DIY attempt
Homes close to Church of Holy Trinity include some older properties, and timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.
Questions to ask before booking
- What insurance they hold
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
- The length of the guarantee
- Who turns up on the day
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
