Bathroom resealing for homes and businesses in Waltham St Lawrence

Resealing is a small job that makes a big difference. Mouldy silicone makes even a new bathroom look neglected, and a clean white or clear joint fixes it quickly. Just as important, it closes the gaps water would otherwise get through. If you have new sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting and gaps between the worktop and the wall, we can put it right, whatever the surface.

In a village or hamlet like Waltham St Lawrence, homes are often older cottages and farmhouses alongside a few newer houses. Older walls and timber floors can move a little, and cracked grout and split sealant are often the first signs.

Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

DIY sealant or a professional job?

If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again.

Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.

What affects the quote in Waltham St Lawrence

There’s no set price list, because no two jobs are the same. The quote depends on:

  • The size of the job
  • Access and height
  • How many areas need sealing
  • The old material and how stubborn it is

Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.

What we need to know

To make quoting easier, please include:

  • If someone has resealed it before
  • Photos by email, if that’s easy
  • Where the property is
  • Access, such as stairs, a lift or height

There’s no standard price list, as no two jobs are quite the same. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To arrange one, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.

When something else is needed

Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:

  • Movement from a bath with loose feet or no proper support
  • Tiles that have come away from the wall
  • Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we seal

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

How the job changes by surface

Shower trays & enclosures

If a tray moves underfoot, new silicone will not last. Movement is checked before anything is resealed, and tell you if it needs re-bedding first.

Baths

Acrylic baths flex the most, while steel and cast iron baths move less but still settle when full. Loading the bath with water before sealing allows for it.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Waltham St Lawrence

We work for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants is a simple way to keep a property in good order before the next move-in.

Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report. Several properties can be quoted together.

Common questions in Waltham St Lawrence

Can you do bathroom resealing in Waltham St Lawrence?

Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Waltham St Lawrence is part of that. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us what needs doing.

Is Waltham St Lawrence 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 get rid of the black mould in my sealant?

Yes, we can. We strip the bead, treat the joint and lay new anti-fungal silicone.

Will it make a mess?

Not at all. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.

How do I get a quote for bathroom resealing in Waltham St Lawrence?

The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Call for a quick quote.

How long does a bath or shower reseal take?

That depends on the number of joints and the state of the old sealant. Allow a couple of hours for a typical bath or shower.

Can I do it myself?

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.

Can you just seal over the old silicone?

No. New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, so it peels away and hides mould and water. All the old sealant comes out first.

How to look after the new joints

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Squeegee the walls and tray after use
  • Let new sealant cure fully before it gets wet
  • Run the extractor fan during and after every shower
  • Dry worktop joints after washing up

Give the silicone time to cure before it gets wet, which is usually around 24 hours. After that, a quick wipe after showering helps keep it clean.

Each shower pushes a little more water through a failed joint. Over time that water reaches floors, walls and ceilings. Early resealing closes the gap before damage is done.

Bathroom resealing around Waltham St Lawrence

Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.

Rented homes near Twyford station change hands often, and fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay. Homes close to Church of St Lawrence include some older properties, and older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. If you look after a building such as Waltham St Lawrence Primary School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

How it works

We bring everything the job needs with us, so there’s nothing for you to buy. Once we have agreed what’s being done, the area is protected and the work begins. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers. In a small place like Waltham St Lawrence, access is generally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. We start by protecting the area and stripping out the old bead.
  2. We clean and degrease the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We let it dry fully and fill the bath with water before sealing.
  4. New anti-fungal silicone goes on in a colour to suit and is tooled to a clean finish.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can get wet, normally after around 24 hours.

How to prepare

  • Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
  • Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
  • Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
