Bathroom resealing in Wingrave, done properly
A shower joint gets soaked every day. Trays, enclosures, screen profiles and wet room floors all need a flexible, waterproof seal. They’re resealed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone, tooled smooth so water runs off instead of sitting in a ridge. Common call-outs are for gaps where the bath or tray has moved and water getting behind the bath panel, on basins & vanity units, wet rooms and sinks & splashbacks.
Somewhere as small as Wingrave, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Older walls and timber floors can move a little, and cracked grout and split sealant are often the first signs.
Our work is backed for twelve months.

Bathrooms and kitchens in Wingrave
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
For landlords with property near Cheddington station, fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay. Homes close to Church of St Peter and St Paul include some older properties, and bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

Leave it or put it right?
Leaving a split or mouldy bead only stores up trouble. Once water is behind the bath, it can reach floorboards, panels and the ceiling underneath, and that is a far bigger job than a reseal. Older cottages and farmhouses around Wingrave can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Leaving a failed joint usually makes the job bigger, not smaller, because water and mould keep working on it. If you’re unsure, call 0345 464 0079 or email us for an honest opinion and a quote.

When to call us in Wingrave
No sealant lasts indefinitely. Daily water, heat and cleaning products slowly wear it down, and how long it lasts comes down to use, cleaning and ventilation.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Smears of silicone across the tiles
- Water getting behind the bath panel
- Shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop
- Gaps where the bath or tray has moved
Schools such as Wingrave Church of England Combined School are buildings too, and washroom and kitchen sealant there needs the same care as at home, and schools and businesses are part of our work as well as homes.

Common questions in Wingrave
Do you cover smaller places like Wingrave?
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.
Do you work for landlords with property near Cheddington station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before we start.
Can I choose the colour of the sealant?
We can use white, clear or a colour to suit. On a worktop we colour-match where the joint shows.
Will you leave a mess?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.
Do I have to be there?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. Hotels, offices and other businesses use us and we’re fully insured.
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 follow the cure time we give you.
Should I try DIY first?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.

When it is not the sealant
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what sealant cannot fix:
- Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Cracks in the tray itself rather than the joint
- A tray that rocks until it’s re-bedded
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs 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 doesn’t move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
How the visit works
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and explain the cure time. The visit itself normally takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom, depending on the size of the job. Somewhere as small as Wingrave, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We cover the area around the joints we are working on.
- Old sealant is sliced away and the residue removed.
- We treat any mould and let the joint dry properly.
- Baths are filled first, then anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied in a colour to suit.
- The joint is finished neatly and we explain when it can get wet.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before

What the job involves on each surface
Baths
Most bath leaks begin along the long edge, particularly where there’s a shower over the bath. It gets one smooth bead of anti-fungal silicone, tooled so water can’t sit on it.
Shower trays & enclosures
Shower trays are sealed to the wall, and enclosures are sealed to the tray and tiles. Both get soaked every time the shower runs, so each is cut out and renewed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone.
How to look after the new joints
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Stick to a soft cloth and a mild cleaner
- Move toiletries away from the joint
- Avoid abrasive pads on the sealant
- Squeegee the walls and tray after use
Wipe up standing water along the worktop joint and keep hot pans away from the silicone. A dry joint lasts longer.
Worktop joints fail quietly. Splashes run behind the back edge and soak into the worktop, and the board underneath can swell. A reseal in time can save the worktop.
