What bathroom resealing looks like in Poundon
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.
Around Poundon, as everywhere, bathroom resealing is only as good as the preparation behind it. For landlords with property near Bicester North station, mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets.

What affects the quote in Poundon
Your quote is based on your job. We take into account:
- The product the joint needs
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- When we can work, for business premises
- How easy the joints are to reach
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.
Asking for a quote
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- The address or postcode of the job
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
Every job is quoted individually, so start by telling us what you need. Simply phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and describe the job.
What we do, step by step
Once we’re on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. After that, the work takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom. In a small place like Poundon, access is normally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We start by protecting the area and stripping out the old bead, including the film left on the tiles.
- We clean and degrease the joint and treat any mould.
- Once it’s dry, any bath is filled so the bead is laid with it at its heaviest.
- A single bead of anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied and tooled smooth.
- We tidy up and give you the cure time, normally around 24 hours.
How to prepare
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

Related advice
Keeping the joints in good condition
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:
- Keep bottles off the sealant line
- Never pick at the silicone with a blade
- Wipe the sealant dry after showering
- Wipe up water along the back of the worktop
In a kitchen, don’t let water sit along the back of the worktop. The drier the joint stays, the longer it lasts.
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.
Surface by surface
Baths
A bath shifts slightly every time it’s filled, so it’s filled with water before the bead goes on. The joint is then laid with the bath at its lowest point.
Sinks & splashbacks
Around the sink, we use a product suited to kitchens, including a food-safe sealant where that is needed. The bead is finished smooth so it wipes clean.
When it is not the sealant
We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what sealant can’t put right:
- Movement from a bath with loose feet or no proper support
- Water getting in through the grout rather than the sealant
- Damage behind the tiles that needs a tiler
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will say what we think.
What we seal
- Kitchen worktops & upstands
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units

Questions from Poundon
Do you work for landlords with property near Bicester North station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Can you do bathroom resealing in Poundon?
Yes, Poundon 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.
Which products do you use?
It depends on the joint: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Are you insured?
Yes, we are fully insured.
Will you leave a mess?
Not at all. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.
Can you just seal over the old silicone?
No. Fresh silicone cannot stick to the old bead, so it peels away and hides mould and water. All the old sealant comes out first.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We’re approved under the ARBOMaster scheme.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, every time. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so the joint is cleaned back first.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
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.
If you’re 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.
