Bathroom resealing in Temple Ewell

Should I try it myself first?

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.

A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly.

About our bathroom resealing in Temple Ewell

The bead of silicone around a bath, tray or worktop is what keeps water out of the gaps. When it splits, shrinks or turns black, water gets behind it and into the wall or floor. Our team cut the old bead out completely and lay a new one in anti-fungal sanitary silicone. If you’re dealing with a joint torn by a bath that flexes and water getting behind the bath panel, we can help.

For a small place like Temple Ewell, bathroom resealing is planned like any other job: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.

We stand behind the work with a 12-month guarantee, so you are covered after we have gone.

  • Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
  • When we can work, for business premises

There are no prices on our website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. Call for a quick quote and we will talk you through it.

What bathroom resealing looks like in Temple Ewell

Temple Ewell is close to the coast. Near the coast, holiday lets and guest houses can see bathrooms used by one guest after another, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. 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.

Rented homes near Kearsney station change hands often, and 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 Peter and St Paul include some older properties, and walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

Temple Ewell is about 2 miles north-west of Dover, in Kent.

Temple Ewell: your questions answered

Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll send you a clear quote.

Is Temple Ewell in your area for bathroom resealing?

Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Temple Ewell is part of that. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job, and we’ll send you a clear quote.

Is it OK to put new sealant on top of the old bead?

No, and it’s one of the main reasons reseals fail. The old joint is stripped, cleaned and resealed from scratch.

A short description and the location, with pictures by email if possible. If we need more, we’ll ask.

What does bathroom resealing cost?

There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. You will get a clear quote before work begins.

What we can’t put right

A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:

  • A bath or tray that moves because it is not properly supported
  • Cracks in the tray itself rather than the joint
  • Cracked or missing grout between tiles (that is regrouting)

If you’re not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Joints and surfaces we work on

  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Wet rooms

Signs you need bathroom resealing in Temple Ewell

Mould is the reason many people want their sealant replaced. Steamy rooms that don’t dry out give mould all the damp it needs, and once it has grown into the bead, cleaning rarely gets it out.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • New sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting
  • A messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal
  • Black mould in the silicone that will not clean off
  • Failed sealant on the screen profile

Managing a site like Temple Ewell Church of England Primary School? Then we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

Our hiring checklist

Aftercare tips

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

  • Keep the fan on for a while after bathing
  • Never pick at the silicone with a blade
  • Stick to a soft cloth and a mild cleaner
  • Do not leave water standing on kitchen joints

Don’t stand bottles along the bead, because they trap water against the silicone. Squeegeeing the walls and tray after use keeps water from sitting on the joint.

A split bead lets water through every time the bath or shower is used. Left alone, it soaks into the floor, the wall behind the tiles or the ceiling below. Resealing early stops it.

Surface by surface

Sinks & splashbacks

Where a splashback meets the worktop, there’s a joint that catches every splash. We renew it in clear, white or a matched colour.

Kitchen worktops & upstands

Laminate worktops swell if water gets into the core. A sound joint along the back edge stops that, as long as the worktop itself is firmly fixed.

How it works

On the day, we start by going over the job with you. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work begins. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers. In a small place like Temple Ewell, access is normally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. We cover the area around the joints we are working on.
  2. Old sealant is sliced away and the residue removed.
  3. We treat any mould and let the joint dry properly.
  4. Baths are filled first, then anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied in a colour to suit.
  5. We finish the joint, clear up and tell you how long to leave it before it gets wet.

Before we arrive

  • For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
  • Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
  • Tell us if parking is tricky
