About our bathroom resealing in Viables

Homes in Viables have the same weak spots as anywhere else: bath edges, tray joints, basin backs and kitchen upstands. Every joint is cut out, cleaned and left dry before it’s resealed. If you’re dealing with water getting behind the kitchen upstand and damp behind the bath or under the tray, we can put it right, whatever the surface.

Around Viables, you’ll mostly find houses and bungalows, some older and some much newer. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do in a big town.

You get a 12-month guarantee, the same in Viables as everywhere else we work.

Viables homes and their sealant

Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.

If you look after a building such as St John's Church of England Voluntary Aided Primary School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. Letting a property close to Basingstoke station? Then fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay.

What happens on the day

All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so there’s nothing for you to buy. Once we have agreed what’s being done, we protect the area and start. Most jobs take a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen. In a smaller place like Viables, parking is seldom the issue; lanes, gates and long drives are worth mentioning. For outside work, side access and the height of the joints help us plan.

  1. We look at every joint first and check for movement or leaks.
  2. Every trace of the old bead is removed, including the thin smear 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, usually around 24 hours.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
  • On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
  • Keep children and pets away from the work area

Common questions in Viables

Is Viables within the area you cover?

Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.

Can you help a landlord with a rental near Basingstoke station?

Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before work begins.

What does bathroom resealing cost?

Every job is different, so each one gets its own quote. To get one, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and let us know what needs doing and where.

What do you need from me for a quote?

Let us know what needs doing and where, with pictures by email if possible. If we need more, we’ll ask.

Will it make a mess?

We keep the work tidy. We protect what’s around the joints, and we clear up when we’re done.

Can you reseal around my kitchen sink and worktop?

Yes. Kitchen joints get extra degreasing before the new bead goes on, then we reseal in a colour to suit.

Do you hold any approvals?

Yes. We’re ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.

Are you insured?

Yes, we’re fully insured for domestic and commercial work.

Different surfaces, different methods

Basins & vanity units

Basin joints are short and close to eye level: so we keep the line tidy and even, in white, clear or a colour to suit.

Wet rooms

Wet rooms rely on sound joints at floor and wall junctions. They’re resealed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone, and our work is on the visible joints only.

DIY versus a professional finish

Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.

Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.

Signs you need bathroom resealing in Viables

Silicone doesn’t last for ever. Daily water, heat and cleaning products take their toll over the years, and how long it lasts comes down to use, cleaning and ventilation.

Any of these means the joints need attention:

  • A bead that has pulled away from the tiles
  • Two layers of silicone, both failing
  • Damp behind the bath or under the tray
  • Black spots spreading through the bead

Homes close to Church of All Saints include some older properties, and walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

What to look for in a quote

  • Who does the work, and how experienced they are
  • Whether all the old sealant comes out first
  • What preparation is included
  • Are they insured?

10 questions to ask before you book

Why deal with it now?

Bleach and mould sprays may lighten black marks for a while, but mould that has grown into the sealant tends to return. The lasting answer is to remove the bead and start again. In a smaller place like Viables, 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.

Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.
