Wickham Bishops Bathroom Resealing
Bath, shower, basin, wet room, worktop and sink resealing for Wickham Bishops, backed by a 12-month guarantee. Call for a quick quote.
- Water getting behind the bath panel
- A messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal
- Failed sealant on the screen profile
Leave it or put it right?
The difference in a professional reseal is mostly what you do not see: removing all the old sealant, degreasing the joint, treating mould and drying it properly. Skip those steps and even the best silicone fails early. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Wickham Bishops, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Doing several joints on one visit is usually more efficient than separate visits. We’ll send you a clear quote for the lot.

Bathroom resealing around Wickham Bishops
Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
Managing a site like Great Totham Primary School? Then we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Bartholomew, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
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.

A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.

What sealant work can’t fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Cracked or missing grout between tiles (that is regrouting)
- Movement from a bath with loose feet or no proper support
- Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
If you’re not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will give you a straight answer.

Wickham Bishops: your questions answered
Is Wickham Bishops in your area for bathroom resealing?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Wickham Bishops is part of that. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job.
Is Wickham Bishops within the area you cover?
Yes, Wickham Bishops is covered. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Is it OK to put new sealant on top of the old bead?
No, and it’s one of the main reasons reseals fail. The old joint is stripped, cleaned and resealed from scratch.
Can tenants book the work?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, every time. New silicone does not stick to old silicone, so the joint is cleaned back first.
What do you put in the joint?
Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, picked for each joint. We explain the product when we quote.
Do I need to be at home?
We need access to the joints, so we will agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. Commercial and hotel work is a large part of what we do. We can talk about working times when we quote.
When to call us in Wickham Bishops
A bath shifts a little every time it’s filled and emptied. Acrylic in particular gives slightly under the weight of water and a person, and a tray that isn’t fully bedded can rock. Over time the joint tears or pulls away from the tile.
The problems people generally mention when they call are:
- Two layers of silicone, both failing
- A bead that has pulled away from the tiles
- Black mould in the silicone that will not clean off
- Failed sealant on the screen profile
Letting a property close to Witham station? Then fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay.

What we do, step by step
The work is kept neat and contained to the joints we’re treating, so you can carry on as normal. Expect the work to take a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go. In a small place like Wickham Bishops, access is usually the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- First, each joint is checked for movement and signs of water.
- The old silicone is cut out completely, along with the film it leaves on the tiles.
- Joints are degreased and any mould is treated.
- With the joint dry, and any bath loaded with water, a single bead of anti-fungal silicone is applied.
- The bead is tooled smooth and you are told the cure time, usually around 24 hours.
How to prepare
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Mention any tricky access
- Tell us about any water getting in
