Bathroom resealing near Speed Gate

What we cannot put right

We’d rather tell you now than do work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Tiles that have come away from the wall
  • Movement from a bath with loose feet or no proper support
  • Water getting in through the grout rather than the sealant

If you are not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we seal

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

How we handle bathroom resealing in Speed Gate

It isn’t only bathrooms. Worktop upstands, sink edges and splashback joints all take splashes every day, and water behind a laminate worktop can make it swell. Kitchen joints get a sealant suited to kitchens, colour-matched where it shows. Typical jobs include splits where the tray meets the wall and a bead that has pulled away from the tiles, on sinks & splashbacks, shower trays & enclosures and baths.

Being in a small place like Speed Gate makes no difference to the job itself: the journey and access are simply agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the bathroom or kitchen gets the same care as anywhere else.

All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

What affects the quote in Speed Gate

Every job gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • Access and height
  • Mould in or behind the old joints
  • The amount of work
  • The number of rooms or windows

The cost depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. You will have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

What we need to know

When you contact us, these details help:

  • Whether it’s a home or a business
  • Roughly how big the job is
  • Photos by email, if that’s easy
  • How we’d reach the joints

For a quick quote, get us on the phone, or email us if that is easier. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we will explain what’s involved before giving you a price.

Leave it or put it right?

Running new silicone over the old joint can look tidy for a few weeks, but it will not bond. Water creeps under it and mould follows. Older cottages and farmhouses around Speed Gate can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.

The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That’s why we ask a few questions first.

DIY versus a professional finish

A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.

Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.

Managing a site like Longfield Academy? Then we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. Rented homes near Longfield station change hands often, and mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets.

Aftercare tips

Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:

  • Look for lifting corners and small gaps now and then
  • Wipe the sealant dry after showering
  • Open a window or run the fan so the room dries
  • Give the silicone its full cure time

Check the sealant now and then. Small splits and lifting ends are easy to catch early, and if anything looks wrong, just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

A few black dots in the silicone soon become a black line. Once it’s deep in the silicone, cleaning usually will not remove it. Replacing the sealant early keeps the job small.

Landlord and commercial work in Speed Gate

We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders. Sealant work between tenants is a simple way to keep a property in good order.

Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.

How it works

We work through the job in order: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. For most jobs that takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom and we leave things clean and tidy. Somewhere like Speed Gate 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.

  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. We apply anti-fungal sanitary silicone in one even bead and tool it neatly.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can get wet, normally after around 24 hours.

Before we arrive

  • Move anything stored near the joints
  • Tell us about any water getting in
  • Mention if the joints have been sealed before

Advice

Speed Gate questions

Is Speed Gate within the area you cover?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

Do you cover Speed Gate for bathroom resealing?

Yes, Speed Gate is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.

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.

My sealant has gone black. Can you sort it?

Yes, we replace the mouldy bead. Sprays can fade the marks, but cutting it out and resealing is what lasts. Good ventilation helps keep it away.

Should I try DIY first?

Sometimes. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.

What do you put in the joint?

Each joint gets the product that suits it. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice.

How long does it take to reseal a bath or shower?

It depends on how many joints there are and how much old sealant has to come out. Allow a couple of hours for a typical bath or shower.
