How we handle bathroom resealing in Theydon Garnon
It is not only bathrooms. Worktop upstands, sink edges and splashback joints get wet every single day, and water that gets into the back edge of a worktop can swell the board. We reseal them with a kitchen-suitable silicone, matched to the worktop where it’s on show. Common call-outs are for a messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal and black spots spreading through the bead, across sinks & splashbacks, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & upstands.
Around Theydon Garnon, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats. The work is the same as anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

Do you need bathroom resealing in Theydon Garnon?
Sealing over old silicone is one of the commonest mistakes we find. Fresh silicone cannot grip the old bead underneath, so it peels, leaks and hides mould behind it.
People generally contact us after spotting something like this:
- Mouldy sealant that has gone black
- Splits where the tray meets the wall
- Cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone
- Failed sealant on the screen profile
If you live in an older home near Church of All Saints, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

Honest limits
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’ll tell you before work begins. Sealant will not put right:
- Cracked or missing grout between tiles (that’s regrouting)
- A bath or tray that moves because it isn’t properly supported
- Cracks in the tray itself rather than the joint
If you’re not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we seal
- Sinks & splashbacks
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & upstands
For landlords and businesses
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, the work is the same standard: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements.
Keeping the joints in good condition
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Check the joints every few months for splits or lifting
- Keep scourers and sharp tools away from the bead
- Wait for the cure time we give you
- Open a window or run the fan so the room dries
Clean the silicone with care: a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth is enough. Scourers and blades can nick the surface, because a damaged bead gives mould a foothold.
A failed kitchen joint is easy to miss. Water gets behind the upstand and into the edge of a laminate worktop, and the board underneath can swell. Resealing before that happens protects the worktop.
FAQs for Theydon Garnon
Is Theydon Garnon in your area for bathroom resealing?
Yes, Theydon Garnon is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job, and we will give you a clear price.
Is there a guarantee on bathroom resealing in Theydon Garnon?
All our work, in Theydon Garnon and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We are also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
Do you do kitchens as well as bathrooms?
Yes. The old sealant is cut out and the joint degreased, because cooking grease stops silicone sticking, then a colour-matched bead is laid.
Can mouldy silicone be sorted out?
Yes. Once mould has grown into the silicone, it normally can’t be cleaned out for good, so we cut it out, treat the joint and reseal with anti-fungal silicone.
Is there any odour?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures, but it fades. Ventilation helps.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done.

What we do, step by step
All our tools and materials come with us in the van. After a quick look at the joints together, we protect the area and start. It normally takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom. Somewhere as small as Theydon Garnon, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We protect the area and cut out all of the old sealant, including the film left on the tiles.
- Next, the joint is cleaned and any mould is treated.
- Once it’s dry, any bath is filled so the bead is laid with it at its heaviest.
- A single bead of anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied and tooled smooth.
- We clear away and tell you when it can get wet, generally after around 24 hours.
Getting ready for the visit

Basins & vanity units
Basin joints are short and close to eye level: the bead is right in front of you, so it’s tooled cleanly and evenly, in white, clear or a colour to suit.
Wet rooms
A wet room floor and its walls can move independently, so the corners need a flexible seal, not grout. Where grout in a corner has cracked, we can replace it with sealant.
What affects the quote in Theydon Garnon
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We look at:
- How many areas need sealing
- Access and height
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Which sealant suits the joint
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part.

- Whether it’s a home or a business
- A few pictures by email, if you can
