Trusted bathroom resealing in Tye Green

Can I do it myself?

A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again.

The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, then guaranteed for a year.

Bathroom resealing in Tye Green

Sealant that’s mouldy, cracked or peeling shouldn’t be left until there’s a leak. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a photo of the joints, and you will get a clear quote for bathroom resealing in Tye Green. We are often asked to deal with failed sealant on the screen profile and a reseal done over the top of the old bead, on wet rooms, sinks & splashbacks and baths.

Homes around Tye Green are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.

How the visit works

We keep the work tidy and contained to the joints we are treating. Expect the work to take a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers, and we explain the cure time before we leave. In a small place like Tye Green, access is usually the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. We start by protecting the area and stripping out the old bead, including the film left on the tiles.
  2. The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
  3. The joint is left to dry, and baths are filled with water first.
  4. A single bead of anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied and tooled smooth.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can get wet, usually after around 24 hours.

Getting ready for the visit

  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
  • Clear the area around the work
  • Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

Tye Green homes and their sealant

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.

For landlords with property near Newport (Essex) station, mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Wimbish Primary School, washroom and kitchen sealant there needs the same care as at home, and schools and businesses are part of our work as well as homes. For an older house near a landmark such as St Paul's Mission Room, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

Tye Green questions

Is Tye Green in your area for bathroom resealing?

Yes, Tye Green is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing.

Is Tye Green within the area you cover?

Yes. Tye Green 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.

Where are you based?

We are a Crawley-based firm, with over 20 years’ experience. Our area covers South East England, London and Scotland.

Can you just seal over the old silicone?

No. Sealing over the top looks fine for a few weeks, then lifts, because silicone does not bond to silicone. We remove the old bead completely before resealing.

Can you quote for more than one area?

Yes, and it often makes sense. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit.

How long does a bath or shower reseal take?

A single bath or shower takes about a couple of hours, old sealant removal included. A whole bathroom plus the kitchen may take most of the day.

What colours of sealant can you use?

Most people choose white or clear, and other colours are available to suit tiles, trays and worktops. Tell us what you’d like when you get in touch.

Are you insured?

Yes. Full insurance covers our work, and we can confirm the details when we quote.

Keeping the joints in good condition

How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:

  • Squeegee the walls and tray after use
  • Keep bottles off the sealant line
  • Never pick at the silicone with a blade
  • Stick to a soft cloth and a mild cleaner

Keep water off the new bead until it has cured, which is generally around 24 hours. Once it’s cured, wiping it down after use keeps it looking new.

A few black dots in the silicone soon become a black line. Once it’s deep in the silicone, cleaning usually will not remove it, and nearby grout often goes the same way. Replacing the sealant early keeps the job small.

When something else is needed

Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant won’t do:

  • A tray or bath that is cracked through
  • Tiles that have come away from the wall
  • Failed grout lines across the wall

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

What we seal

  • Wet rooms
  • Sinks & splashbacks
  • Baths
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Kitchen worktops & upstands

How the job changes by surface

Shower trays & enclosures

If a tray moves underfoot, new silicone won’t last. We check for movement before we reseal, and if the tray needs refixing, we’ll say so.

Baths

A bath shifts slightly every time it’s filled, so it’s filled with water before the bead goes on. That way the joint is laid with the bath at its heaviest and isn’t stretched when it’s used.
