Bathroom resealing near Saffron Walden

About our bathroom resealing in Saffron Walden

Sealant that’s mouldy, cracked or peeling is worth sorting before it lets water through. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a photo of the joints, and you’ll get a clear quote for bathroom resealing in Saffron Walden. If you are dealing with a joint torn by a bath that flexes and new sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting, we can help.

Plenty of homes in a town like Saffron Walden have had new bathrooms and kitchens over the years, some more than once. A common problem is new sealant laid over old, which never bonds properly, which is why all the old material has to come out first.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Saffron Walden homes and their sealant

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. There are hotels and other places to stay in and around Saffron Walden. Hotel bathrooms are part of our work as well as homes, and can be done room by room.

Homes close to Saffron Walden Baptist Church include some older properties, and older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. Managing a site like R A Butler Infant School? Then we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

Keeping the joints in good condition

Aftercare is simple:

  • Do not let bottles sit on the bead
  • Dry the bead with a towel now and then
  • Avoid abrasive pads on the sealant
  • Let new sealant cure fully before it gets wet

Do not stand bottles along the bead, as they hold water against it. A quick squeegee after showering helps the joint dry.

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.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Saffron Walden

We work for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for.

Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.

What we’re called out for in Saffron Walden

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 won’t clean off.

Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:

  • Water getting behind the bath panel
  • Smears of silicone across the tiles
  • Black mould in the silicone that won’t clean off
  • Shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop

Rented homes near Audley End station change hands often, and mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets.

Choosing a sealant specialist

How it works

All our tools and materials come with us in the van. After a quick look at the joints together, the area is protected and the work begins. Most jobs take around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom. For a job in Saffron Walden, we need access to where the work is and somewhere nearby to park. If the job is outside, mention gates, side access and anything above ground floor.

  1. Protection goes down around the bath, shower or worktop.
  2. We cut away the old sealant and clean off what’s left.
  3. We treat any mould and let the joint dry properly.
  4. Any bath is filled with water, then we lay a bead of anti-fungal silicone in white, clear or a matching colour.
  5. The joint is finished neatly and we explain when it can get wet.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking restrictions
  • On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

Related advice

What we cannot put right

Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant won’t do:

  • A tray that rocks until it’s re-bedded
  • Loose or hollow tiles, or failed tanking behind them
  • Water getting in through the grout rather than the sealant

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
  • Wet rooms
  • Baths
  • Sinks & splashbacks
  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Basins & vanity units

How we quote for bathroom resealing

You’ll get a clear quote before work begins. It takes into account:

  • Any mould that needs treating
  • The type of sealant required
  • The old material and how stubborn it is
  • How easy the joints are to reach

A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

What to tell us for a quote

Photos help, but a description is a good start. Please mention:

  • Any previous sealing or DIY work
  • The address or postcode of the job
  • What’s wrong with the joints now
  • Photos by email, if that is easy

There’s no standard price list, because every job is different. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To get started, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

What the job involves on each surface

Kitchen worktops & upstands

Upstands and back edges are cut out, cleaned of grease and resealed, since cooking leaves a film that stops silicone sticking. Proper degreasing is what helps the new joint last.

Shower trays & enclosures

Water often gets past the wall profile of a shower enclosure. We reseal it along with the base of the enclosure, sealing the side the enclosure’s instructions call for.
