About our bathroom resealing in Stelling Minnis
Showers work their sealant harder than baths. Tray edges, screen profiles and wet room joints all rely on silicone to stay watertight. They’re resealed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone, tooled smooth so water runs off instead of sitting in a ridge. If you are dealing with smears of silicone across the tiles and a reseal done over the top of the old bead, we can help, whatever the surface.
Around Stelling Minnis, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. The work is the same as anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.
All our work is covered by a 12-month guarantee.

How the job changes by surface
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.
Baths
A bath shifts slightly every time it’s filled, so it’s filled with water before the bead goes on. That way the joint is laid with the bath at its heaviest.
When something else is needed
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- A leaking waste, trap or valve
- Water getting in through the grout rather than the sealant
- Movement from a bath with loose feet or no proper support
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we seal

Stelling Minnis questions
Do you cover Stelling Minnis for bathroom resealing?
Yes, Stelling Minnis is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing.
Is Stelling Minnis within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Can you reseal around my kitchen sink and worktop?
Yes. Where it’s needed by the sink, we use a food-safe sealant.
Can landlords and businesses book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties at once, and between tenancies is a good time for the work.
Should I try DIY first?
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.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Will it make a mess?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We are an ARBOMaster approved applicator, the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants.
Signs you need bathroom resealing in Stelling Minnis
No sealant lasts indefinitely. Every shower, every splash and every wipe with a cleaner slowly wear it down, and how long it lasts comes down to use, cleaning and ventilation.
The problems people normally mention when they call are:
- A bead that has pulled away from the tiles
- Two layers of silicone, both failing
- Shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop
- Lumpy, uneven sealant from a DIY attempt
Schools such as Stelling Minnis Church of England Primary School are buildings too, and its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

Bathroom resealing in Stelling Minnis: local notes
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Mary, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

Aftercare tips
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:
- Use gentle cleaners on the silicone
- Squeegee the walls and tray after use
- Dry worktop joints after washing up
- Never pick at the silicone with a blade
Check the sealant now and then. Small splits and lifting ends are easy to catch early, so if something does not look right, just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
A few black dots in the silicone soon become a black line. When it has grown right through, it rarely cleans out. Replacing the sealant early keeps the job small.
How we quote for bathroom resealing
Call for a quick quote. The main things that affect it are:
- Any working-time requirements on site
- The number and length of the joints
- Whether the work is at height
- The product the joint needs
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, along with when we can work on site. Call for a quick quote and we will go through it with you.
What to tell us for a quote
When you contact us, it’s useful to know:
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- Roughly how big the job is
- The address or postcode of the job
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
For a quick quote, get us on the phone, or send an email if you’d rather. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we’ll talk you through the work before giving you a price.
How it works
Every visit runs the same way: we look at the joints together, protect the area around them, carry out the job and clear up. It usually takes a couple of hours for a single bath or shower. Somewhere as small as Stelling Minnis, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We look at every joint first and check for movement or leaks.
- 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.
- The bead is tooled smooth and you’re told the cure time, normally around 24 hours.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

Advice
What happens if it’s left?
Dealing with sealant early is a short job: the work takes a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers. Wait for a leak and you may be looking at panels off, drying out and redecorating too. In a small place like Stelling Minnis, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
The cost depends on the amount of work, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. You will have a clear quote before any work starts.
