Bathroom resealing in Puddledock
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 kitchen worktops & upstands, sinks & splashbacks and basins & vanity units, and the jobs we see most are sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away and black spots spreading through the bead.
Somewhere as small as Puddledock, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Older walls and timber floors can move a little, and cracked grout and split sealant are often the first signs.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

How to look after the new joints
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Open a window or run the fan so the room dries
- Move toiletries away from the joint
- Do not leave water standing on kitchen joints
- Let new sealant cure fully before it gets wet
Clean the silicone with care: a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth is enough. Avoid scouring pads and anything sharp, because a damaged bead gives mould a foothold.
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
Wet rooms
Wet room floors move slightly as they’re used, so the corners need a flexible seal, not grout. Cracked grout in a corner can be cut out and replaced with silicone.
Baths
Acrylic baths flex the most, while steel and cast iron baths move less but still settle when full. Loading the bath with water before sealing allows for it.

Why act early in Puddledock
Leaving a split or mouldy bead only stores up trouble. Once water is behind the bath, it can reach floorboards, panels and the ceiling underneath, and that’s a far bigger job than a reseal. Older cottages and farmhouses around Puddledock can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

Signs you need bathroom resealing in Puddledock
Silicone needs a clean, dry surface without any grease to stick to. Traces of soap, bath oil and old sealant stop it gripping, and a joint that looked fine soon begins to come away.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- New sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting
- Water escaping at the shower enclosure
- Black mould in the silicone that will not clean off
- Sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away
Homes close to St Peter include some older properties, and walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

How the visit works
Our applicators work methodically: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. Typically it takes half a day or less for one room, longer when the kitchen is included, and the area is left clean. For a village or hamlet like Puddledock, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- We start by protecting the area and stripping out the old bead, including the film left on the tiles.
- The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for 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, usually around 24 hours.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- Let us know about parking restrictions
