Landlords, agents and businesses in The Burroughs

In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so the work can be planned room by room. We have worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.

A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.

Bathroom resealing for homes and businesses in The Burroughs

Before a bath is sealed, it’s filled with water. The weight settles the bath to its lowest point, so the new joint isn’t pulled apart the first time it’s used. It’s a small step that rushed reseals tend to skip. Typical jobs include leaking joints on a shower screen and new sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting, across wet rooms, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & upstands.

Hard London water leaves limescale on sealant, grout and taps alike. For a bathroom or kitchen in The Burroughs, getting the joints right keeps water where it belongs and the room looking clean.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

Why it’s worth doing now in The Burroughs

Most of the work in a good reseal happens before any silicone goes on: cutting out every trace of the old bead, cleaning, treating mould and letting the joint dry. Skip those steps and even the best silicone fails early. Damp from a failed joint spreads quietly in older London brickwork and timber, and once it shows in The Burroughs, the repair is bigger than a sealant job.

The cost depends on the amount of work, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. We give a clear quote before any work starts.

How the job changes by surface

Baths

Acrylic baths give a little under load, and even steel and cast iron baths settle slightly when full. Filling the bath first allows for that movement.

Shower trays & enclosures

A tray that rocks will split any sealant. We check for movement before we reseal, and if the tray needs refixing, we will say so.

Should I try it myself first?

Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.

Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

What we’re called out for in The Burroughs

Plenty of failed sealant has been laid over the top of older sealant. Fresh silicone cannot grip the old bead underneath, so it peels, leaks and hides mould behind it.

Any of these means the joints need attention:

Black mould in the silicone that will not clean off
Shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop
Cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone
Water getting behind the bath panel

If you look after a building such as St Joseph's Catholic Primary School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

FAQs for The Burroughs

Do you take on hotel work around The Burroughs?

Yes, we work for hotels as well as homes and businesses. A room-by-room programme keeps most rooms in use while the work goes on.

Can worn sealant in a flat in The Burroughs cause a leak downstairs?

Yes. In a flat, water from a failed bath or shower seal has only one way to go, and that’s down. A proper reseal before the leak starts is the easy fix.

How long before the new sealant can get wet?

Silicone is touch-dry quite quickly, but it takes longer to cure. Keep water off it for around 24 hours, or as long as we advise for that product.

What do you put in the joint?

We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we will explain our choice.

Are you fully insured?

Yes, we are fully insured for every job we do.

Do I have to be there?

For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. Once we’ve agreed the job, you do not need to watch us work.

What colours of sealant can you use?

There’s a choice: clear, white and colours chosen to suit the room. We’ll talk it through when we quote.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the product. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all.

How it works

Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, protect the area around them, do the work and tidy away. Most jobs take half a day or less for one room, longer when the kitchen is included. For a job in The Burroughs, parking and access are the things to plan: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space, which floor we are working on and whether there’s a lift.

First, each joint is checked for movement and signs of water.
Every trace of the old bead is removed, including the thin smear on the tiles.
The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
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.
