Bathroom resealing for homes and businesses in Wickham
We fill the bath before sealing it. A full bath sits slightly lower than an empty one, so the new joint isn’t pulled apart the first time it’s used. Quick jobs often leave it out, and it makes a real difference. We work on kitchen worktops & upstands, sinks & splashbacks and basins & vanity units, and common reasons people get in touch are leaking joints on a shower screen and water getting behind the kitchen upstand.
Smaller places like Wickham still have plenty of bathrooms that work hard every day. Whether it’s a cottage bathroom or a newer en suite, the approach is the same: all the old material out, the joint cleaned and dried, then new sealant or grout.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, whatever its size.

Common questions in Wickham
Do you work for landlords with property near Fareham station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we will send you a clear quote.
Will you come out to Wickham?
Yes, Wickham is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
What sealant do you use?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we will tell you what we’re using.
Is it worth trying it myself?
It depends on the job. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We are approved under the ARBOMaster scheme.
Is it messy?
Tidy work is part of the job. We protect what’s around the joints, and the area is left clean when we finish.
My sealant has gone black. Can you sort it?
Yes, we replace the mouldy bead. Sprays can fade the marks, but cutting it out and resealing is what lasts. Airing the room well helps stop it returning.
How long does it take to reseal a bath or shower?
Allow around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom. You’ll know how long to expect before we start.
Aftercare tips
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Move toiletries away from the joint
- Let new sealant cure fully before it gets wet
- Dry the bead with a towel now and then
- Look for lifting corners and small gaps now and then
Keep water off the new bead until it has cured, following the cure time we give you. After that, a quick wipe after showering helps keep it clean.
Watch for the early signs: a corner lifting, a gap behind the bead, a dark line under the silicone or a damp patch on the ceiling below. Any of these means the joint needs attention.
What happens on the day
There is not much for you to do on the day. Show us the job and we will take it from there. The job generally takes half a day or less for one room, longer when the kitchen is included. A visit to Wickham 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.
- 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.
- The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
- 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’re told the cure time, usually around 24 hours.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any tricky access
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on

Why act early in Wickham
Dealing with sealant early is a short job: it takes a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers. Left until water gets through, the job can grow to lifting panels, drying out and decorating. In an older home around Wickham, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the sealant itself.
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.
Why us?
- Old sealant always removed completely
- Experience in homes, commercial sites and hotels
- A choice of colours where the product allows
- Tidy, careful work
Bathroom resealing around Wickham
Wickham has hotels and guest accommodation nearby. As well as homes, we work in hotel bathrooms, where resealing and regrouting can be done room by room. Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
If you live in an older home near Church of St Nicholas, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant. For landlords with property near Fareham station, a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for. Schools such as Wickham Church of England Primary School are buildings too, and its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

What’s near Wickham
Around Wickham, our work takes us to homes and buildings near The Old House Hotel and the streets around them. Wickham’s nearest station is Fareham station, roughly 3.2 miles south of the centre. Well-known places in the area include Fareham Shopping Centre (3.2 miles south) and Carron Row Farm Museum (3.5 miles south-west). For a walk, there’s St Clair's Meadow and Portsdown Hill.
DIY versus a professional finish
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

Different surfaces, different methods
Sinks & splashbacks
The edge of an inset sink is a common place for water to get under the worktop. Where the sealant around the visible edge has failed, we renew it.
Baths
The long joint down the side of a bath is where most leaks start, especially under a shower. We finish it with a single, even bead of anti-fungal silicone, tooled so water cannot sit on it.
Honest limits
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what sealant cannot fix:
- Loose or hollow tiles, or failed tanking behind them
- A tray or bath that’s cracked through
- A tray that rocks until it’s re-bedded
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
