Bathroom resealing for homes and businesses in West Wellow
A reseal only lasts if the joint is properly prepared. The old sealant is removed to the last smear, after which the joint is degreased and any mould treated. Only once it’s dry does the new bead go on. We’re often asked to deal with smears of silicone across the tiles and cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone, across kitchen worktops & upstands, sinks & splashbacks and shower trays & enclosures.
Around West Wellow, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, in West Wellow and everywhere else we cover.

DIY versus a professional finish
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.

Letting agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the address, the job and how access works.
If you manage several properties in or around West Wellow, several properties can go on one quote. Send us the addresses and the work at each, and pictures by email help.
West Wellow: your questions answered
Will you come out to West Wellow?
Yes, West Wellow is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
I let a flat near Romsey station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before work begins.
Do you work for hotels and businesses?
Yes. Hotels, offices and other businesses use us, and we’re fully insured.
How do I get a quote for bathroom resealing in West Wellow?
We don’t publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. You’ll get a clear quote before work begins.
Can new silicone go straight over the old?
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.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Doing several areas at once is usually more efficient.
Do you reseal kitchen worktops and sinks too?
Yes, often alongside a bathroom. Where it’s needed by the sink, we use a food-safe sealant.
How long does a bath or shower reseal take?
It depends on how many joints there are and how much old sealant has to come out. For most single baths or showers, allow a couple of hours.
What bathroom resealing looks like in West Wellow
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.
Managing a site like Wellow School? Then we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. If you let a flat or house near Romsey station, fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay.

Do you need bathroom resealing in West Wellow?
Sealing over old silicone is one of the commonest mistakes we find. New silicone will not bond to old silicone, so it peels, leaks and hides mould behind it.
The problems people usually mention when they call are:
- Gaps where the bath or tray has moved
- A reseal done over the top of the old bead
- Leaks into the floor or ceiling below
- A bead that has pulled away from the tiles
If you live in an older home near Church of St Margaret, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.
What your quote should include
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it

How the visit works
There’s no need to move everything out, only the area right around the joints. Everything nearby is protected, and the work takes a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen for a typical job. For a village or hamlet like West Wellow, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- 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, generally around 24 hours.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on

What we cannot put right
We’d rather tell you now than do work that won’t last, so here’s what sealant cannot put right:
- A bath or tray that moves because it is not properly supported
- Tiles that have come away from the wall
- Water coming from the plumbing rather than the joint
If you’re not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we seal
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & upstands
- Baths
- Sinks & splashbacks
- Basins & vanity units
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Wipe the sealant dry after showering
- Keep scourers and sharp tools away from the bead
- Clean with a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth
- Keep the fan on for a while after bathing
Give the silicone time to cure before it gets wet, following the cure time we give you. Once it’s cured, wiping it down after use keeps it looking new.
A failed kitchen joint is easy to miss. Water gets behind the upstand and into the edge of a laminate worktop, and the board underneath can swell. Resealing before that happens protects the worktop.
