Keeping the joints in good condition

No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:

  • Do not let bottles sit on the bead
  • Don’t leave water standing on kitchen joints
  • Give the silicone its full cure time
  • Keep the fan on for a while after bathing

Give the silicone time to cure before it gets wet, following the cure time we give you. After that, a quick wipe after showering helps keep it clean.

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.

About our bathroom resealing in Sholden

A shower joint gets soaked every day. Tray edges, screen profiles and wet room joints all rely on silicone to stay watertight. They’re resealed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone, finished smooth so water drains away rather than collecting. We work on basins & vanity units, sinks & splashbacks and kitchen worktops & upstands, and common reasons people get in touch are lumpy, uneven sealant from a DIY attempt and shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop.

For a small place like Sholden, bathroom resealing is planned like any other job: the journey and access are simply agreed in advance. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

How the job changes by surface

Sinks & splashbacks

Next to the sink, the sealant has to cope with constant water, including a food-safe sealant where that is needed. The joint is laid neatly so it’s easy to wipe.

Basins & vanity units

The back of a basin gets wet every time someone washes. Corners behind basins are where mould tends to start, and we treat it exactly as we would a bath.

Should I try it myself first?

Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.

Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Sholden

Hotels need rooms back in use, so the work can be planned room by room around your bookings where we can. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.

We also work for property managers and facilities teams. We can quote a run of properties together, and we’re fully insured for the work.

What we do, step by step

A visit follows a simple pattern: we look at the joints together, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and tidy away. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers. Somewhere as small as Sholden, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. We cover the area around the joints we’re working on.
  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. Baths are filled first, then anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied in a colour to suit.
  5. The joint is finished neatly and we explain when it can get wet.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear items away from the joints we are working on
  • Let us know about parking restrictions
  • Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints

Advice

Sholden: your questions answered

I let a flat near Deal station. Can you help?

Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as homeowners. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.

Do you work in hotels near Sholden?

Yes, hotels and guest houses are among the places we work. Rooms can be done a few at a time, so the building stays open.

Do you have insurance?

Yes. Full insurance covers our work.

Will it make a mess?

Not at all. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.

Which products do you use?

We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we’ll tell you what we are using.

What do you need from me for a quote?

The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. Photos by email help too.

Is white the only colour available?

There’s a choice: clear, white and colours chosen to suit the room. We will talk it through when we quote.

Where do you work from?

Our base is Crawley, with over 20 years’ experience. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.

Leave it or put it right?

Running new silicone over the old joint can look tidy for a few weeks, but it can’t stick to what’s underneath. Water creeps under it and mould follows. In a small place like Sholden, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

Bathrooms and kitchens in Sholden

Sholden is within about 2 miles of the coast. Near the coast, holiday lets and guest houses can see bathrooms used by one guest after another, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.

Managing a site like Sholden Church of England Primary School? Then its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. Rented homes near Deal station change hands often, and fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay. Homes close to Church of St Nicholas include some older properties, and walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.
