In a village or hamlet like Somerton, homes are often older cottages and farmhouses alongside a few newer houses. Movement in older walls and floors tends to show first as cracked grout or split sealant.
Our work is backed for twelve months.

How the visit works
Most of a good job is in the preparation, so that is where we spend the time. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. All told, the work takes half a day or less for one room, longer when the kitchen is included. Somewhere like Somerton needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- First, each joint is checked for movement and signs of water.
- 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.
- We tool the bead to a neat finish and give you the cure time, normally around 24 hours.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

Landlord and commercial work in Somerton
Letting agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the address, the job and how access works and we’ll quote.
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. Several properties can go on one quote.
Surface by surface
Kitchen worktops & upstands
The joint between worktop and wall takes splashes, crumbs and cleaning sprays. We seal them in a colour that suits the worktop.
Basins & vanity units
A vanity top has a joint along the wall and sometimes at the sides. If water gets in, the cabinet underneath can swell, so the joint is sealed in one unbroken line.

What else we do in Somerton
When something else is needed
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- A cracked shower tray or bath (that needs repair or replacement)
- Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Failed grout lines across the wall
If you’re not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Baths
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Sinks & splashbacks
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & upstands
Keeping the joints in good condition
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Wait for the cure time we give you
- Do not leave water standing on kitchen joints
- Do not let bottles sit on the bead
- Clean with a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth
Wipe up standing water along the worktop joint. The drier the joint stays, the longer it lasts.
A few black dots in the silicone soon become a black line. When it has grown right through, it rarely cleans out. Catching it early keeps it a simple reseal.
Should I try it myself first?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
Common problems we fix in Somerton
Not every tube in the shop is meant for a shower. Acrylic caulk and general-purpose sealants are not designed for a joint that’s wet every day, so they stain, crack or go mouldy before long. A bathroom joint needs anti-fungal sanitary silicone.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Lumpy, uneven sealant from a DIY attempt
- Water getting behind the bath panel
- Black spots spreading through the bead
- A joint torn by a bath that flexes
If you live in an older home near Church of St James, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.
