Why act early in Wick Hill

Bleach and mould sprays may lighten black marks for a while, but where mould is inside the silicone it normally comes back. Cutting it out and resealing with anti-fungal silicone is the fix that lasts. Homes in smaller places like Wick Hill can face more weather, and failed outside joints let damp into walls. Inside, a split seal lets water into floors and panels just as it would anywhere.

What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask a few questions first and agree the price before starting.

Why us?

  • One-year guarantee on every job
  • Full insurance on every job
  • Homes, businesses and hotels
  • White, clear, grey or another colour, product permitting

How we handle bathroom resealing in Wick Hill

Homes in Wick Hill have the same weak spots as anywhere else: bath edges, tray joints, basin backs and kitchen upstands. Each one is stripped, cleaned and dried before new silicone goes in. If you’re dealing with mouldy sealant that has gone black and damp behind the bath or under the tray, we can help.

In and around Wick Hill, older properties sit alongside newer ones. In older homes, walls and floors can move a little more, so the right flexible sealant matters.

Every job is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Bracknell Forest.

Different surfaces, different methods

Shower trays & enclosures

Water often gets past the wall profile of a shower enclosure. We reseal it along with the base of the enclosure, following the enclosure maker’s guidance on which side to seal.

Basins & vanity units

On a basin, neatness shows: the bead is right in front of you, so it’s tooled cleanly and evenly, in white, clear or a colour to suit.

What bathroom resealing looks like in Wick Hill

Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in. Bracknell, which Wick Hill is part of, is one of England’s post-war new towns. With many homes dating from the post-war decades, plenty of bathrooms have been resealed or refitted more than once. Sealant laid over old sealant never bonds properly, so it all has to come out.

For an older house near a landmark such as Holy Trinity Church, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. If you let a flat or house near Bracknell station, a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for. Managing a site like Warfield Church of England Primary School? Then we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

Landlord and commercial work in Wick Hill

Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. Several properties can go on one quote.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Tell us the address, the job and how access works.

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:

  • Give the silicone its full cure time
  • Avoid abrasive pads on the sealant
  • Run the extractor fan during and after every shower
  • Keep bottles off the sealant line

Do not stand bottles along the bead, as they hold water against it. A quick squeegee after showering keeps water from sitting on the joint.

A failed kitchen joint is easy to miss. Splashes run behind the back edge and soak into the worktop, where it can make the board swell. Resealing before that happens protects the worktop.

The process

Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, protect the area around them, do the work and tidy away. Most jobs take two to three hours for a typical bath, depending on how much old sealant there is. A visit to Wick Hill is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. Outdoor jobs depend on a dry day, since sealant needs a dry surface.

  1. We look at every joint first and check for movement or leaks.
  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. The bead is tooled smooth and you’re told the cure time, normally around 24 hours.

Before we arrive

  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
  • Mention if the joints have been sealed before
  • Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

Can I do it myself?

Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.

Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.

Wick Hill questions

I let a flat near Bracknell station. Can you help?

Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details for a clear quote.

Do you cover smaller places like Wick Hill?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.

Will it make a mess?

No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we tidy up before we go.

Is white the only colour available?

We can use white, clear or a colour to suit. On a worktop we colour-match where the joint shows.

How long does a bath or shower reseal take?

One bath or shower is around two hours’ work, including cutting out the old sealant. A whole bathroom plus the kitchen may take most of the day.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes. We give a 12-month guarantee on every job, and we are ARBOMaster approved applicators.

My sealant has gone black. Can you sort it?

Yes. Mould inside the bead rarely cleans out for good, so the bead comes out, the joint is treated and new anti-fungal silicone goes in.

Should I try DIY first?

That depends on the joint. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional.

What affects the cost of bathroom resealing

You’ll get a clear quote before work begins. It takes into account:

  • Whether the work is at height
  • The size of the job
  • How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
  • Mould in or behind the old joints

We don’t show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. Call for a quick quote.

What we need to know

When you call or email, these details help:

  • Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
  • Whether it has been sealed before
  • How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
  • What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking

Asking for a quote is easy: let us know what needs doing and where and its rough size. Photos by email help us understand the job, and we will come back to you with a quote.
