Sealant work in GU26

Bathroom resealing in GU26: how it works

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. Typical jobs include a bead that has pulled away from the tiles and mouldy sealant that has gone black, across basins & vanity units, baths and kitchen worktops & upstands.

The work is kept neat and contained to the joints we’re treating. Expect the work to take around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom, and we explain the cure time before we leave.

  1. We cover the area around the joints we’re working on.
  2. Old sealant is sliced away and the residue removed.
  3. Mould is treated, then the joint is left to dry thoroughly.
  4. Any bath is filled with water, then we lay a bead of anti-fungal silicone in white, clear or a matching colour.
  5. The joint is finished neatly and we explain when it can get wet.

Where we work in GU26

Our bathroom resealing work across GU26 covers homes, rentals and businesses, in Shottermill, Grayshott and Beacon Hill and well beyond. The method is the same everywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and dried, and a fresh finish laid.

Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings. For any job in GU26, joints are cleaned back properly before anything new goes in.

Grayshott: If you live in an older home near Church of St Luke, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Grayshott Church of England Controlled Primary 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.

What affects the cost of bathroom resealing

The price is agreed before any work begins. It’s based on:

  • How easy the joints are to reach
  • When we can work, for business premises
  • Mould in or behind the old joints
  • How many areas need sealing

There are no prices on our website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. Call for a quick quote and we will talk you through it.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.

Landlords and letting agents in GU26 can book us as well as homeowners. Resealing between tenancies is a simple way to keep a property in good order.

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 getting the depth right matters as much as the look.

The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.

Why it fails

Sealant laid on a damp, dusty or greasy joint never bonds properly. Soap residue, oils and leftover silicone film all get in the way, and a joint that looked fine soon begins to come away.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Two layers of silicone, both failing
  • Water escaping at the shower enclosure
  • Black mould in the silicone that will not clean off
  • A bead that has pulled away from the tiles

What sealant work cannot fix

We’d rather tell you now than do work that won’t last, so here’s what sealant cannot put right:

  • Damage behind the tiles that needs a tiler
  • Water getting in through the grout rather than the sealant
  • Cracks in the tray itself rather than the joint

GU26 questions

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

Yes. The old sealant comes out, the mould is treated, and we reseal with anti-fungal sanitary silicone.

Can landlords and businesses book you?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties at once.

Which products do you use?

The product depends on the job: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.

Do you work for hotels and businesses?

Yes. Hotels, offices and other businesses use us, and we are fully insured.

Can tenants book the work?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are glad to have it sorted.

Do you remove the old sealant?

Yes. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, and it’s something we never do.

Can you do several jobs on one visit?

Yes, and it often makes sense. Doing several areas at once is usually more efficient, so mention them when you ask for a quote.
