- Water escaping at the shower enclosure

- Black mould in the silicone that won’t clean off
Aftercare tips
Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:
- Clean with a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth
- Move toiletries away from the joint
- Dry worktop joints after washing up
- Squeegee the walls and tray after use
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.
Each shower pushes a little more water through a failed joint. Over time that water reaches floors, walls and ceilings. Resealing early stops it.
Bathroom resealing for homes and businesses in Test Valley
Homes in Test Valley have the same weak spots as anywhere else: the long edge of the bath, the base of the shower tray, the back of the basin and the line along the worktop. Every joint is cut out, cleaned and left dry before it’s resealed. If you’re dealing with smears of silicone across the tiles and mouldy sealant that has gone black, we can help, on baths, kitchen worktops & upstands and wet rooms alike.
Somewhere as small as Test Valley, 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.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

Test Valley homes and their sealant
Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
If you live in an older home near Church of St James, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them. In and around Test Valley, as anywhere, good bathroom resealing starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

Quotes for bathroom resealing in Test Valley
For a quick quote, just ask. The main things that affect it are:

- How many areas need sealing

What to tell us for a quote
To make quoting easier, please include:
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Where the property is
We quote each job on its own, so start by telling us what you need. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details, and pictures are welcome.
The process
All our tools and materials come with us in the van. Once we have agreed what’s being done, we protect the area and start. It normally takes a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen. Somewhere as small as Test Valley, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We cover the area around the joints we’re working on.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
Getting a quote
A good description makes for an accurate quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and add pictures by email if you can.
Advice
Can I do it myself?
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.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
How the job changes by surface
Shower trays & enclosures
If a tray moves underfoot, new silicone will not last. Movement is checked before anything is resealed, and tell you if it needs re-bedding first.
Sinks & splashbacks
Where a splashback meets the worktop, there’s a joint that catches every splash. It’s resealed in white, clear or a colour to suit.
Your questions about bathroom resealing in Test Valley
Is Test Valley within the area you cover?
Yes. Test Valley is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Is bathroom resealing in Test Valley guaranteed?
Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, wherever it is. We’re fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Where do you work from?
Our base is Crawley, with over 20 years’ experience. Our area covers South East England, London and Scotland.
Can mouldy silicone be sorted out?
Yes. Mould inside the bead rarely cleans out for good, so the bead comes out, the joint is treated and new anti-fungal silicone goes in.
What colours of sealant can you use?
Most people choose white or clear, but other colours can be used to suit tiles and worktops. Let us know your preference when you ask for a quote.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, every time. New silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so the joint is cleaned back first.
Do I have to be there?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. Once we have agreed the job, you do not need to watch us work.
Which products 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’ll tell you what we’re using.
For landlords and businesses
If you manage several properties in or around Test Valley, jobs at different addresses can go on one quote. Send us the addresses and the work at each.
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. Several properties can be quoted together.
When something else is needed
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what sealant cannot fix:
- Water getting in through the grout rather than the sealant
- A tray that rocks until it’s re-bedded
- Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
If you’re not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer.
