Why deal with it now?
Tired sealant isn’t a reason to replace a bath or shower. Replacing the joint is generally all it takes, provided the bath, tray and tiles are in good order. If something else is wrong, we’ll tell you. Older cottages and farmhouses around Tolleshunt Major can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask about the job first and send you a clear quote before we start.

Bathroom resealing in Tolleshunt Major, done properly
We fill the bath before sealing it. The weight settles the bath to its lowest point, so the new joint is not pulled apart the first time it’s used. Quick jobs often leave it out, and it makes a real difference. We work on wet rooms, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures, and the jobs we see most are damp behind the bath or under the tray and sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away.
Around Tolleshunt Major, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats. The work is the same as anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after we have gone.

Honest limits
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we will tell you before we start. It will not solve:
- Cracked or missing grout between tiles (that is regrouting)
- Cracks in the tray itself rather than the joint
- A leaking waste, trap or valve

Surface by surface
Shower trays & enclosures
Water often gets past the wall profile of a shower enclosure. We reseal it along with the base of the enclosure, following the enclosure maker’s guidance on which side to seal.
Kitchen worktops & upstands
Kitchen joints need more degreasing than bathroom ones, since cooking leaves a film that stops silicone sticking. Proper degreasing is what helps the new joint last.
FAQs for Tolleshunt Major
Do you cover smaller places like Tolleshunt Major?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Is Tolleshunt Major in your area for bathroom resealing?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Tolleshunt Major is part of that. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
What sealant do you use?
It depends on the joint: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Where do you work from?
Our base is Crawley, with over 20 years’ experience. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We’re fully insured.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Always. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, so we never do it.
Do you guarantee your resealing?
Yes. We give a 12-month guarantee on every job, and we’re ARBOMaster approved applicators.
Should I try DIY first?
It depends on the job. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
What we do, step by step
There’s no need to move everything out, just the space around the work. We protect the rest, and the work takes a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen in most cases. Somewhere as small as Tolleshunt Major, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- 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.
- Joints are degreased and any mould is treated.
- When the joint is dry, and a bath has been filled with water, the new silicone goes on.
- We tool the bead to a neat finish and give you the cure time, normally around 24 hours.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the work
- Mention any tricky access
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules

Bathroom resealing in Tolleshunt Major: local notes
Tolleshunt Major is within about 3 miles of the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Nicholas, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. In and around Tolleshunt Major, as anywhere, good bathroom resealing starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

Looking after it afterwards
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Wipe the sealant dry after showering
- Use gentle cleaners on the silicone
- Let new sealant cure fully before it gets wet
- Don’t leave water standing on kitchen joints
Clean the silicone with care: warm soapy water and a soft cloth do the job. Avoid scouring pads and anything sharp, because a damaged bead gives mould a foothold.
Watch for the early signs: a corner lifting, a gap behind the bead, a dark line under the silicone or a damp patch on the ceiling below. Any of these means the joint needs attention.
