Trusted bathroom resealing in Sutton

Do you need bathroom resealing in Sutton?

Baths and trays move. An acrylic bath flexes under load, and a tray that isn’t fully bedded can rock. Over time the joint tears or pulls away from the tile.

People generally contact us when they notice something like this:

  • A bead that has pulled away from the tiles
  • New sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting
  • Failed sealant on the screen profile
  • Lumpy, uneven sealant from a DIY attempt

In the older streets around Church of St Peter and St Paul, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

How to choose a mastic man

Bathroom resealing in Sutton

We fill the bath before sealing it. The weight settles the bath to its lowest point, so the new joint is not pulled apart the first time it’s used. Quick jobs often leave it out, and it makes a real difference. If you have water escaping at the shower enclosure and gaps between the worktop and the wall, we can help.

Somewhere as small as Sutton, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Movement in older walls and floors tends to show first as cracked grout or split sealant.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

What sealant work cannot fix

New sealant can’t fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It will not solve:

  • Tiles that have come away from the wall
  • A bath or tray that moves because it is not properly supported
  • Cracks in the tray itself rather than the joint

If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will say what we think.

What we seal

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

Leave it or put it right?

Bleach and mould sprays may lighten black marks for a while, but mould that has grown into the sealant tends to return. The lasting answer is to remove the bead and start again. Around Sutton, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.

A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

Why book with us

DIY sealant or a professional job?

The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.

What we do, step by step

There is not much for you to do on the day. Show us the job and we’ll take it from there. The work itself takes a couple of hours for a single bath or shower. For a village or hamlet like Sutton, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.

  1. We look at every joint first and check for movement or leaks.
  2. The old silicone is cut out completely, along with the film it leaves on the tiles.
  3. The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
  4. With the joint dry, and any bath loaded with water, a single bead of anti-fungal silicone is applied.
  5. We tool the bead to a neat finish and give you the cure time, generally around 24 hours.

Before we arrive

  • For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any tricky access

Keeping the joints in good condition

Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Clean with a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth
  • Never pick at the silicone with a blade
  • Let new sealant cure fully before it gets wet
  • Squeegee the walls and tray after use

Mould needs damp, so keep the room aired. Run the extractor fan during and after a shower, so the silicone gets a chance to dry.

There’s no need to wait for a full refurbishment. Like paintwork, sealant needs renewing from time to time, and replacing it when it fails protects the rest of the room.

Bathrooms and kitchens in Sutton

Sutton is within about 3 miles of the coast. Near the coast, holiday lets and guest houses can see bathrooms used by one guest after another, which wears sealant and grout out faster than in a quiet home. Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.

Does someone need to be in?

We need access to the joints, so we will agree that with you when we book. Indoors, that normally means someone at home.

Do the sealants smell?

Possibly a little. It fades as the sealant cures.

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. For most single baths or showers, allow a couple of hours.

Can you just seal over the old silicone?

No. New silicone will not bond to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old sealant comes out first.

Are you fully insured?

Yes, we are fully insured for domestic and commercial work.

Do you guarantee your resealing?
