Bathroom & kitchen resealing in Rooksdown, Hampshire
Problem with your baths, showers and worktops in Rooksdown? We cut out the old, prepare the joints and apply the right sealant.
- Lumpy, uneven sealant from a DIY attempt
- Failed sealant on the screen profile
- Gaps where the bath or tray has moved
How it works
The work is kept neat and contained to the joints we’re treating, so you can get on with your day. The job usually takes two to three hours for a typical bath, depending on how much old sealant there is. Parking around Rooksdown is generally easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. For outside work, side access and the height of the joints help us plan.
- We look at every joint first and check for movement or leaks.
- The old silicone is cut out completely, along with the film it leaves on the tiles.
- The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
- When the joint is dry, and a bath has been filled with water, the new silicone goes on.
- We tool the bead to a neat finish and give you the cure time, usually around 24 hours.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

Bathroom resealing in Rooksdown
It isn’t only bathrooms. The joint between worktop and wall, the edge of the sink and the bottom of the splashback all take splashes every day, and water that gets into the back edge of a worktop can swell the board. Kitchen joints get a sealant suited to kitchens, colour-matched where it shows. If you’re dealing with sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away and a messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal, we can help, whatever the surface.
In a smaller place like Rooksdown, homes are mostly houses and bungalows rather than flats, some older and some much newer. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do in a big town.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

Surface by surface
Baths
Acrylic baths give a little under load, and even steel and cast iron baths settle slightly when full. Loading the bath with water before sealing allows for it.
Wet rooms
Not every wet room leak is a sealant problem. We reseal the joints and will tell you if the water seems to be coming from somewhere else.

DIY versus a professional finish
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
Rooksdown questions
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Basingstoke station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before work begins.
Do you cover smaller places like Rooksdown?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. If you can, email a few pictures.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done.
Are you fully insured?
Yes, we’re fully insured.
Do I need to be at home?
That depends on where the joints are. Inside work needs someone to give us access, and for outside work we will agree access with you when we book.
Do you do kitchens as well as bathrooms?
Yes. The old sealant is cut out and the joint degreased, because cooking grease stops silicone sticking, then we reseal in a colour to suit.
Why it’s worth doing now in Rooksdown
Sorting it now is quick: it takes a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen. Left until water gets through, the job can grow to lifting panels, drying out and decorating. Homes in smaller places like Rooksdown can face more weather, and failed outside joints let damp into walls. Indoors, a failed seal lets water into floors and panels as it would anywhere.
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That’s why we ask a few questions first and give you a clear quote before any work starts.

Do you need bathroom resealing in Rooksdown?
Mould is the reason many people want their sealant replaced. Bathrooms without good ventilation give mould all the damp it needs, and mould that has grown into the silicone generally will not clean off.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Mouldy sealant that has gone black
- Damp behind the bath or under the tray
- Lumpy, uneven sealant from a DIY attempt
- Water escaping at the shower enclosure
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Fort Hill Community School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

When it is not the sealant
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’ll tell you before any work starts. It won’t solve:
- Water getting in through the grout rather than the sealant
- Tiles that have come away from the wall
- Cracks in the tray itself rather than the joint
If you are not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Rooksdown homes and their sealant
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
