About bathroom resealing in GU25

A bead that has gone black, split or come away is worth sorting before it lets water through. A photo of the joints helps when you phone 0345 464 0079 or email us, and you’ll get a clear quote for bathroom resealing in GU25. We’re often asked to deal with two layers of silicone, both failing and failed sealant on the screen profile, on kitchen worktops & upstands, wet rooms and sinks & splashbacks.

Once we are on site, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. Most jobs then take around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom.

  1. We look at every joint first and check for movement or leaks.
  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.

Bathroom resealing across GU25: local notes

Across GU25, from Virginia Water, Trumps Green and Wentworth outwards, we see bathrooms and kitchens of every age. Family bathrooms, rented flats and hotel en suites all need their sealant and grout renewing in time.

London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, though outside sealant still needs a dry, clean joint, so work across GU25 is planned around the weather.

Virginia Water: For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Trumps Green Infant School, 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. Rented homes near Virginia Water station change hands often, and fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay.

Why it fails

Not every tube in the shop is meant for a shower. Decorators’ caulk and all-purpose sealants aren’t made for constant wetting, so they crack, discolour or grow mould quickly. A bathroom joint needs anti-fungal sanitary silicone.

The most common problems we see are:

  • Mouldy sealant that has gone black
  • Gaps where the bath or tray has moved
  • A bead that has pulled away from the tiles
  • A reseal done over the top of the old bead

Why act early?

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.

Comparing quotes

  • Whether they seal over old material or remove it
  • The length of the guarantee
  • Who does the work, and how experienced they are
  • How the colour is chosen

When something else is needed

In fairness, there are a few things sealant will not fix:

  • Cracks in the tray itself rather than the joint
  • A bath or tray that moves because it is not properly supported
  • Tiles that have come away from the wall

Landlords, agents and businesses in GU25

In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so we plan the work room by room around your bookings where we can. We’ve worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.

From a single let to a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.

Keeping the joints in good condition

Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:

  • Wipe the sealant dry after showering
  • Don’t leave water standing on kitchen joints
  • Keep scourers and sharp tools away from the bead
  • Check the joints every few months for splits or lifting

In a kitchen, do not let water sit along the back of the worktop. A dry joint lasts longer.

There’s no need to wait for a full refurbishment. Like paintwork, sealant needs renewing from time to time, and renewing it as soon as it fails protects everything around it.

Common questions in GU25

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Just list everything you need and you will get one quote.

Do you remove the old sealant?

Yes, always, and completely. New sealant won’t bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.

Do you reseal kitchen worktops and sinks too?

Yes. The old sealant is cut out and the joint degreased, because cooking grease stops silicone sticking, then we reseal in a colour to suit.

Does someone need to be in?

We need access to the joints, so we’ll agree that with you when we book. Indoors, that generally means someone at home.

What do you need from me for a quote?

Only a few details: where it is, what you’ve noticed and how we reach it. Then call 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Is there any odour?

There can be a smell while the sealant cures. Opening a window helps.

When can I use the bath or shower again?

After around 24 hours in most cases. You’ll get the exact cure time before we leave.
