Our bathroom resealing service in GU18

Showers work their sealant harder than baths. Tray edges, screen profiles and wet room joints all rely on silicone to stay watertight. Each gets a bead of anti-fungal sanitary silicone, tooled smooth so water runs off instead of sitting in a ridge. Typical jobs include leaking joints on a shower screen and mouldy sealant that has gone black, on sinks & splashbacks, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & upstands.

When we arrive, we start by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work begins. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers.

  1. First, each joint is checked for movement and signs of water.
  2. The old silicone is cut out completely, along with the film it leaves on the tiles.
  3. Joints are degreased and any mould is treated.
  4. With the joint dry, and any bath loaded with water, a single bead of anti-fungal silicone is applied.
  5. The bead is tooled smooth and you’re told the cure time, normally around 24 hours.

How we quote

A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

Getting a quote

The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints.

Around Lightwater

In Lightwater, that means homes and buildings near Hammond School, Brentmoor Heath and All Saints. The closest station to Lightwater is Bagshot station, roughly 1.3 miles north-west of the centre. A little further out are Brookwood Hospital (3.3 miles south-east) and The Museum of The National Rifle Association (2.7 miles south). The countryside around Lightwater includes Brookwood Lye.

Where we work in GU18

GU18 has homes of every age, old and new, with plenty of rented property in places like Lightwater. Sound sealant and clean grout keep water out and rooms looking cared for.

From Victorian terraces to post-war new towns and modern estates, homes across the South East and London cover every era. Each needs the right sealant for its age and materials.

Lightwater: If you live in an older home near All Saints, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant. Letting a property close to Bagshot station? Then a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for.

Landlord and commercial work in GU18

Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.

For anyone letting property in or around GU18, several properties can be quoted together. Just tell us the addresses and what each one needs.

Surface by surface

Basins & vanity units

The back of a basin gets wet every time someone washes. Corners behind basins are where mould tends to start, and we treat it exactly as we would a bath.

Shower trays & enclosures

Shower trays are sealed to the wall, and enclosures are sealed to the tray and tiles. Both take water every day, so each is cut out and renewed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone.

Why deal with it now?

A clean new bead makes a room look cared for, which helps when a home is being let or put on the market. A smeared, uneven DIY bead does the opposite, and it’s harder to put right later.

What your quote should include

  • Is VAT in the price?
  • How much experience the applicator has
  • Is the old sealant removed completely?
  • What product goes in the joint

Can I do it myself?

Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.

Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

Signs you need bathroom resealing

A bath shifts a little every time it’s filled and emptied. An acrylic bath flexes under load, while a poorly supported tray can shift underfoot. That movement works at the bead until it splits or peels away.

The most common problems we see are:

  • Splits where the tray meets the wall
  • Sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away
  • New sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting
  • Water getting behind the bath panel

Your questions about bathroom resealing in GU18

How long will the resealing take?

It takes two to three hours for a typical bath, depending on how much old sealant there is. We will confirm how long your job needs when we quote.

Can I do it myself?

You can, for simple jobs. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. If it doesn’t work out, we can redo it.

How much does bathroom resealing cost in GU18?

We do not publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. We agree the price before any work begins.

Can you get rid of the black mould in my sealant?

Yes. We strip the bead, treat the joint and lay new anti-fungal silicone.

Do you work in GU18?

Yes. From our base in Crawley, we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.

Do you guarantee your resealing?

Yes, for 12 months. Good ventilation and gentle cleaning help it last.

Do the sealants smell?

It depends on the product. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all, and any smell fades as they cure.
