Shobley Bathroom Resealing

We cover Shobley for bath, shower, basin, wet room, worktop and sink resealing. Old material cut out, joints cleaned and sealed neatly.

  • Water getting behind the kitchen upstand
  • Smears of silicone across the tiles
  • A bead that has pulled away from the tiles

Bathroom resealing near Shobley

Different surfaces, different methods

Basins & vanity units

Basin joints are short and close to eye level: the bead is right in front of you, so it’s tooled cleanly and evenly, in white, clear or a colour to suit.

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.

Bathroom resealing for homes and businesses in Shobley

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. If you have water getting behind the bath panel and lumpy, uneven sealant from a DIY attempt, we can put it right, whatever the surface.

For a small place like Shobley, bathroom resealing is planned like any other job: the journey and access are simply agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the bathroom or kitchen gets the same care as anywhere else.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Bathroom resealing in Shobley: local notes

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.

Schools such as Poulner Infant 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.

Your questions about bathroom resealing in Shobley

What guarantee comes with bathroom resealing in Shobley?

Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, wherever it is. We are fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.

Do you cover Shobley for bathroom resealing?

Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Shobley is part of that. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job, and we’ll send you a clear quote.

Can you just seal over the old silicone?

No, and it’s one of the main reasons reseals fail. The old joint is stripped, cleaned and resealed from scratch.

When can I use the bath or shower again?

We give you the cure time before we leave, and it’s generally around 24 hours. Using it sooner can damage the bead.

Do you reseal kitchen worktops and sinks too?

Yes. The old sealant is cut out and the joint degreased, because cooking grease stops silicone sticking, then a colour-matched bead is laid.

Do you remove the old sealant?

Yes, always, and completely. New silicone does not stick to old silicone, so the joint is cleaned back first.

What colours of sealant can you use?

White and clear are the most common choices, but other colours can be used to suit tiles and worktops. Let us know your preference when you ask for a quote.

Do you have insurance?

Yes. We are fully insured.

Common problems we fix in Shobley

Plenty of failed sealant has been laid over the top of older sealant. Fresh silicone can’t grip the old bead underneath, so it peels, leaks and hides mould behind it.

If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:

  • A messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal
  • Splits where the tray meets the wall
  • Leaks into the floor or ceiling below
  • Leaking joints on a shower screen

Homes close to St John the Baptist include some older properties, and walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

Before you book anyone

  • How long to leave it before use
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How the joint is cleaned and prepared
  • Whether they’re fully insured

Choosing a sealant specialist

When it is not the sealant

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • A leaking waste, trap or valve
  • Movement from a bath with loose feet or no proper support
  • Tiles that have come away from the wall

Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Quotes for bathroom resealing in Shobley

We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:

  • Mould in or behind the old joints
  • The number of rooms or windows
  • The old material and how stubborn it is
  • The number and length of the joints

Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, the access and the products needed. Call for a quick quote and we will go through it with you.

Helping us quote

What to tell us when you ask for a quote:

  • Where the property is
  • Roughly how big the job is
  • Pictures of the joints, sent by email
  • Any access issues, like height or stairs

Call for a quick quote, or email us if that’s easier. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we’ll talk you through the work.

Why deal with it now?

A failed joint gets more costly to put right the longer it’s left. Once water is behind the bath, it can reach floorboards, panels and the ceiling underneath, and that is a far bigger job than a reseal. Older cottages and farmhouses around Shobley can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.

What it costs depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

Why book with us

  • We agree the colour with you first
  • Quality sealants from Arbo and Everbuild
  • 20+ years of sealant experience
  • Every job guaranteed for a year

What we do, step by step

A visit follows a simple pattern: we check the joints, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, do the work and tidy away. Most jobs take a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen. Somewhere as small as Shobley, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. First the area is protected and every bit of old sealant removed.
  2. The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
  3. Once it’s dry, any bath is filled so the bead is laid with it at its heaviest.
  4. A single bead of anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied and tooled smooth.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can get wet, usually after around 24 hours.

How to prepare

  • Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
  • Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
  • Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
