- Lumpy, uneven sealant from a DIY attempt
- Damp behind the bath or under the tray
- Leaking joints on a shower screen
DIY versus a professional finish
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
Bathroom resealing in Wickham St Paul
The bead of silicone around a bath, tray or worktop is what keeps water out of the gaps. Once it cracks or goes mouldy, water starts to find its way through into walls, panels and floors. Every trace of the old sealant is taken out and replaced with anti-fungal sanitary silicone. We work on baths, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms, and people most often call us about failed sealant on the screen profile and water getting behind the bath panel.
In a village or hamlet like Wickham St Paul, 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.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.

Common problems we fix in Wickham St Paul
Plenty of failed sealant has been laid over the top of older sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, so it lifts, lets water in and traps mould underneath.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- Splits where the tray meets the wall
- Leaks into the floor or ceiling below
- Gaps between the worktop and the wall
- Black mould in the silicone that will not clean off
Homes close to Church of All Saints include some older properties, and older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.
Before booking anyone

- What guarantee comes with the work
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.
Landlords and letting agents in Wickham St Paul can book us as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for before the next move-in.
What the job involves on each surface
Kitchen worktops & upstands
Worktop joints get wet and wiped every day. We seal them in a colour that suits the worktop, so the line does not stand out.
Wet rooms
In a wet room, the joints between floor and walls take standing water. They’re resealed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone, and our work is on the visible joints only.
When it isn’t the sealant
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Damage behind the tiles that needs a tiler
- A tray that rocks until it’s re-bedded
- Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

Common questions in Wickham St Paul
Do you cover smaller places like Wickham St Paul?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Can you do bathroom resealing in Wickham St Paul?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Wickham St Paul is part of that. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. ARBOMaster is the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants, and we’re part of it.
Should I try DIY first?
Sometimes. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. If it doesn’t work out, we can redo it.
Which products do you use?
The product depends on the job: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.
How long does the new silicone need before I use the shower?
The surface skins over fairly quickly, but the bead needs longer to cure right through. Keep water off it for around 24 hours, or as long as we advise for that product.
Can mouldy silicone be sorted out?
Yes. Once mould has grown into the silicone, it generally cannot be cleaned out for good, so the bead comes out, the joint is treated and new anti-fungal silicone goes in.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties at once, and between tenancies is a good time for the work.
