Your questions about bathroom resealing in Rawreth
Can you do bathroom resealing in Rawreth?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Rawreth is part of that. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job.
Do you cover smaller places like Rawreth?
Yes, Rawreth is covered. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, always, and completely. New sealant won’t bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Where are you based?
Our base is Crawley. Our area covers South East England, London and Scotland.
Does the resealing come with a guarantee?
Yes. Our one-year guarantee covers every job, and we’re ARBOMaster approved applicators.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator, and we are fully insured.
Can new silicone go straight over the old?
No, never. Sealing over the top looks fine for a few weeks, then lifts. Every trace of the old bead is removed first.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
How we handle bathroom resealing in Rawreth
A reseal only lasts if the joint is properly prepared. Every bit of old silicone comes out, down to the thin film left on the tiles, then the joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould. Only once it’s dry does the new bead go on. We work on shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & upstands and basins & vanity units, and the jobs we see most are water getting behind the kitchen upstand and leaking joints on a shower screen.
For a small place like Rawreth, bathroom resealing is planned like any other job: the journey and access are simply agreed in advance. Once we are there, the bathroom or kitchen gets the same care as anywhere else.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

How the job changes by surface
Sinks & splashbacks
The edge of an inset sink is a common place for water to get under the worktop. Where the sealant around the visible edge has failed, we renew it.
Kitchen worktops & upstands
Laminate worktops swell if water gets into the core. A sound joint along the back edge stops that, as long as the worktop itself is firmly fixed.
What happens on the day
We bring everything the job needs with us. After a quick look at the joints together, the area is protected and the work begins. It normally takes a couple of hours for a single bath or shower. In a small place like Rawreth, access is normally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We look at every joint first and check for movement or leaks.
- Every trace of the old bead is removed, including the thin smear 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.
- The bead is tooled smooth and you are told the cure time, usually around 24 hours.
How to prepare
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- Tell us about any water getting in

What affects the quote in Rawreth
For a quick quote, just ask. The main things that affect it are:
- Any mould that needs treating
- When we can work, for business premises
- Whether the work is at height
- The number of rooms or windows
Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You’ll know the price before we begin.
Asking for a quote
When you contact us, these details help:
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- Photos by email, if that is easy
- What’s wrong with the joints now
Call for a quick quote, or send an email if you’d rather. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we will talk you through the work.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:
- Keep the fan on for a while after bathing
- Wipe the sealant dry after showering
- Wait for the cure time we give you
- Check the joints every few months for splits or lifting
Treat the new bead gently when you clean: warm soapy water and a soft cloth do the job. Scourers and blades can nick the surface, and a nicked bead lets mould in sooner.
Each shower pushes a little more water through a failed joint. Left alone, it soaks into the floor, the wall behind the tiles or the ceiling below. Early resealing closes the gap before damage is done.
What bathroom resealing looks like in Rawreth
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
Rented homes near Battlesbridge station change hands often, and mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets. If you live in an older home near Church of St Nicholas, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. If you look after a building such as Our Lady of Ransom Catholic Primary School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

DIY versus a professional finish
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone will not bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
What happens if it’s left?
You don’t need a new bathroom because the sealant looks bad. Replacing the joint is normally all it takes, as long as the fittings themselves are sound. If something else is wrong, we will tell you. In a small place like Rawreth, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed. Ask us for a quote and we will go through it with you.
