Bathroom resealing for homes and businesses in Swan Street
The secret of a lasting bead is the preparation. Every bit of old silicone comes out, down to the thin film left on the tiles, after which the joint is degreased and any mould treated. New silicone goes on only when the joint is fully dry. If you have black spots spreading through the bead and sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away, we can help, on wet rooms, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures alike.
For a small place like Swan Street, bathroom resealing is planned like any other job: the journey and access are simply agreed in advance. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once the job is done.

DIY versus a professional finish
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.
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
What affects the quote in Swan Street
Call for a quick quote. The main things that affect it are:
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Access and height
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- How many areas need sealing
Doing several joints on one visit is usually more efficient than separate visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We will give you a clear quote for the lot.
What we need to know
When you contact us, it’s useful to know:
- The address or postcode of the job
- If someone has resealed it before
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
For a quote, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us where the job is and what the problem looks like. We will send you a clear quote before any work starts.
How the job changes by surface
Shower trays & enclosures
A tray that rocks will split any sealant. We check for movement before we reseal, and tell you if it needs re-bedding first.
Sinks & splashbacks
Water getting under the rim of an inset sink can soak the worktop. Where the sealant around the visible edge has failed, we renew it.
Swan Street: your questions answered
I let a flat near Chappel & Wakes Colne station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Is Swan Street within the area you cover?
Yes, Swan Street is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Does someone need to be in?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you reseal around my kitchen sink and worktop?
Yes. Worktops, sinks and splashbacks are all part of the job, with a sealant suited to kitchens, colour-matched where it shows.
Will it make a mess?
No. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.
What information do you need?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help too.
Do you work for hotels and businesses?
Yes. Commercial and hotel work is a large part of what we do. We can talk about working times when we quote.
Can I do it myself?
It depends on the job. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional.
Swan Street homes and their sealant
Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
If you look after a building such as Chappel Church of England Controlled Primary School, washroom and kitchen sealant there needs the same care as at home, and schools and businesses are part of our work as well as homes. For landlords with property near Chappel & Wakes Colne station, mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets. Homes close to Church of St Barnabas include some older properties, and walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

Why deal with it now?
Sorting it now is quick: it 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. Older cottages and farmhouses around Swan Street can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.

- Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

Landlord and commercial work in Swan Street
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Tell us the address, the job and how access works.
We also work for property managers and facilities teams. Several sites can go on one quote.
How the visit works
Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, protect the area around them, do the work and tidy away. It usually takes a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen. In a small place like Swan Street, access is usually the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- Protection goes down around the bath, shower or worktop.
- Old sealant is sliced away and the residue removed.
- Mould is treated, then the joint is left to dry thoroughly.
- Baths are filled first, then anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied in a colour to suit.
- The joint is finished neatly and we explain when it can get wet.
Before we arrive
- Mention any tricky access
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Move anything stored near the joints
