- Water getting behind the kitchen upstand
- A reseal done over the top of the old bead
The process
Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, do the work and tidy away. It generally takes two to three hours for a typical bath, depending on how much old sealant there is. For a village or hamlet like Stapleford Tawney, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- We start by protecting the area and stripping out the old bead.
- The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
- The joint is left to dry, and baths are filled with water first.
- New anti-fungal silicone goes on in a colour to suit and is tooled to a clean finish.
- Finally we tidy up and explain the cure time before we leave.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the work
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints

Bathroom resealing in Stapleford Tawney
Homes in Stapleford Tawney have the same weak spots as anywhere else: bath edges, tray joints, basin backs and kitchen upstands. Each one is stripped, cleaned and dried before new silicone goes in. If you have cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone and gaps between the worktop and the wall, we can help, whatever the surface.
Homes around Stapleford Tawney are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.

Looking after it afterwards
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Keep an eye on the corners, where splits start
- Keep the fan on for a while after bathing
- Don’t let bottles sit on the bead
- Let new sealant cure fully before it gets wet
Mould needs damp, so keep the room aired. Use the fan, or open a window, while you bathe and for a while afterwards, so the silicone gets a chance to dry.
A few black dots in the silicone soon become a black line. When it has grown right through, it rarely cleans out, and nearby grout often goes the same way. Catching it early keeps it a simple reseal.
For landlords and businesses
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a one-year guarantee.
Hotels need rooms back in use, so we plan the work room by room around your bookings where we can. We’ve worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
Bathrooms and kitchens in Stapleford Tawney
Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
In and around Stapleford Tawney, as anywhere, good bathroom resealing starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint. If you live in an older home near Church of St Mary, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

Common questions in Stapleford Tawney
Do you cover Stapleford Tawney for bathroom resealing?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Stapleford Tawney is part of that. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job.
What guarantee comes with bathroom resealing in Stapleford Tawney?

Do you work for letting agents?
Yes. We work in homes, commercial premises and hotels.
How much does bathroom resealing cost in Stapleford Tawney?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. You will get a clear quote before we start.
Is it worth trying it myself?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes, we can. More than one area can be quoted together.
What sealant do you use?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice, and we will tell you what we’re using.
Do I have to be there?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. Once we’ve agreed the job, you do not need to watch us work.
Should I try it myself first?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
Why act early in Stapleford Tawney
Mould removers can fade the surface of a stained bead, but mould that has grown into the sealant tends to return. Cutting it out and resealing with anti-fungal silicone is the fix that lasts. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Stapleford Tawney, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Combining jobs into one visit is normally more efficient than separate visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.
