FAQs for Prestwood
Will you come out to Prestwood?
Yes, Prestwood is covered. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Do you work for landlords with property near Great Missenden station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear price.
How long will the resealing take?
That depends on the number of joints and the state of the old sealant. For most single baths or showers, allow a couple of hours.
How long does the new silicone need before I use the shower?
Around 24 hours is typical, and we confirm the time for the product used. Using it sooner can damage the bead.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, always, and completely. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Can you get rid of the black mould in my sealant?
Yes, we replace the mouldy bead. Sprays can fade the marks, but cutting it out and resealing is what lasts. Good ventilation helps keep it away.
Is it messy?
Tidy work is part of the job. We protect what’s around the joints.
Is white the only colour available?
Most people choose white or clear, but other colours can be used to suit tiles and worktops. Let us know your preference when you ask for a quote.
About our bathroom resealing in Prestwood
Showers work their sealant harder than baths. Trays, enclosures, screen profiles and wet room floors all need a flexible, waterproof seal. They’re resealed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone, finished smooth so water drains away rather than collecting. We work on sinks & splashbacks, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms, and common reasons people get in touch are splits where the tray meets the wall and mouldy sealant that has gone black.
Even in a smaller place like Prestwood, bathrooms and kitchens see heavy daily use. Older or newer, every room gets the same approach: all the old material out, the joint cleaned and dried, then new sealant or grout.
Every job is covered by our 12-month guarantee.

Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep bottles off the sealant line
- Stick to a soft cloth and a mild cleaner
- Open a window or run the fan so the room dries
- Don’t leave water standing on kitchen joints
Keep water off the new bead until it has cured, following the cure time we give you. Once it’s cured, wiping it down after use keeps it looking new.
A failed kitchen joint is easy to miss. Splashes run behind the back edge and soak into the worktop, and the board underneath can swell. Resealing before that happens protects the worktop.
How we quote for bathroom resealing
For a quick quote, just ask. The main things that affect it are:
- Working hours on commercial sites
- Which sealant suits the joint
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Mould in or behind the old joints
We don’t show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. Call for a quick quote.
What to tell us for a quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:
- The type of property
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- The problem you’ve noticed
- The address or postcode of the job
There’s no standard price list. Instead, we give you a clear quote for your job. To get started, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.
What the job involves on each surface
Wet rooms
Wet room floors move slightly as they’re used, so the internal corners need silicone rather than grout. Where grout in a corner has cracked, we can replace it with sealant.
Baths
Acrylic baths give a little under load, while steel and cast iron baths move less but still settle when full. Filling the bath first allows for that movement.
What happens on the day
You do not need to clear the whole room or building before we come, just the space around the work. Everything nearby is protected, and the job takes a couple of hours for a single bath or shower for a typical job. In a smaller place like Prestwood, parking is seldom the issue; lanes, gates and long drives are worth mentioning. If the job is outside, tell us about side access and how high the joints are.
- We cover the area around the joints we’re working on.
- Old sealant is sliced away and the residue removed.
- We treat any mould and let the joint dry properly.
- Baths are filled first, then anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied in a colour to suit.
- The joint is finished neatly and we explain when it can get wet.
Getting ready for the visit
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints

Advice
Common problems we fix in Prestwood
The wrong product fails fast. Decorators’ caulk and all-purpose sealants are not made for constant wetting, so they stain, crack or go mouldy before long. A bathroom joint needs anti-fungal sanitary silicone.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Splits where the tray meets the wall
- Black spots spreading through the bead
- Sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away
- Water escaping at the shower enclosure
For an older house near a landmark such as Holy Trinity Church, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.
Questions to ask before booking
- What guarantee comes with the work
- Which colour the sealant will be
- What insurance they hold
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
Bathroom resealing around Prestwood
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
Schools such as Prestwood Junior School are buildings too, and washroom and kitchen sealant there needs the same care as at home, and schools and businesses are part of our work as well as homes. Letting a property close to Great Missenden station? Then mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets.
