Bathroom resealing for homes and businesses in Upper Horsebridge

The secret of a lasting bead is the preparation. Every bit of old silicone comes out, down to the thin film left on the tiles, after which the joint is degreased and any mould treated. New silicone goes on only when the joint is fully dry. Common call-outs are for a reseal done over the top of the old bead and a joint torn by a bath that flexes, across wet rooms, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures.

In a smaller place like Upper Horsebridge, homes are mostly houses and bungalows rather than flats, some older and some much newer. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do in a big town.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

What we’re called out for in Upper Horsebridge

The wrong product fails fast. Decorators’ caulk and all-purpose sealants are not made for constant wetting, so they crack, discolour or grow mould quickly. A bathroom joint needs anti-fungal sanitary silicone.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Damp behind the bath or under the tray
  • Cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone
  • Gaps between the worktop and the wall
  • Leaking joints on a shower screen

Schools such as Hawkes Farm Academy are buildings too, and 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.

Questions to ask before booking

  • Which colour the sealant will be
  • What product goes in the joint
  • What the quote includes, VAT included or not
  • What the cure time is

For landlords and businesses

We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.

For anyone letting property in or around Upper Horsebridge, several properties can go on one quote. Send us the addresses and the work at each.

How the visit works

When we arrive, we look over the joints with you first. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work starts. The work normally takes a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen. Parking around Upper Horsebridge is generally easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. For outside work, side access and the height of the joints help us plan.

  1. First, each joint is checked for movement and signs of water.
  2. The old silicone is cut out completely, along with the film it leaves on the tiles.
  3. The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
  4. When the joint is dry, and a bath has been filled with water, the new silicone goes on.
  5. We tool the bead to a neat finish and give you the cure time, generally around 24 hours.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
  • Clear the area around the work
  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

Different surfaces, different methods

Kitchen worktops & upstands

Worktop joints get wet and wiped every day. The new bead is colour-matched where it shows.

Baths

A bath shifts slightly every time it’s filled, so we fill it with water before sealing. That way the joint is laid with the bath at its heaviest.

DIY versus a professional finish

If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.

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 does not work out, we can still put it right.

Why it’s worth doing now in Upper Horsebridge

Most of the work in a good reseal happens before any silicone goes on: removing all the old sealant, degreasing the joint, treating mould and drying it properly. Skip those steps and even the best silicone fails early. In a smaller place like Upper Horsebridge, wherever a wall is exposed, a failed outside joint is a real source of damp. Inside, a split seal lets water into floors and panels just as it would anywhere.

Combining jobs into one visit usually makes better use of the time than several visits. We will give you a clear price for the lot.

Yes. Worktops, sinks and splashbacks are all part of the job, with a sealant suited to kitchens, colour-matched where it shows.

Can you do several jobs on one visit?

Yes, and it often makes sense. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit, so mention them when you ask for a quote.

Will it make a mess?

No. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.

Can you just seal over the old silicone?

No. Fresh silicone cannot stick to the old bead, so it peels away and hides mould and water. We always take the old sealant out completely.
