About bathroom resealing in GU31

Sealant is the soft line between a bath, shower or worktop and the wall. Once it cracks or goes mouldy, water starts to find its way through and into the wall or floor. Every trace of the old sealant is taken out and replaced with anti-fungal sanitary silicone. We’re often asked to deal with a joint torn by a bath that flexes and leaks into the floor or ceiling below, on wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & upstands.

We keep the work tidy and contained to the joints we are treating, so you can carry on as normal. The job usually takes a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers, and we explain the cure time before we leave.

1. We look at every joint first and check for movement or leaks.
2. Every trace of the old bead is removed, including the thin smear on the tiles.
3. The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
4. With the joint dry, and any bath loaded with water, a single bead of anti-fungal silicone is applied.
5. We tool the bead to a neat finish and give you the cure time, usually around 24 hours.

Leaving a failed joint generally makes the job bigger, not smaller, because water and mould keep working on it. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will give you an honest view and a quote.

What affects the cost of bathroom resealing

The price is agreed before any work begins. It takes into account:

• When we can work, for business premises
• The type of sealant required
• The amount of work
• The number of rooms or windows

The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask a few questions first and agree the price before starting.

What we need to know

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:

• The rough size of the job
• If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
• The problem you’ve noticed
• Where the property is

For a quick quote, get us on the phone, or email us if that is easier. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we will talk you through the work before giving you a price.

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:

• Wipe up water along the back of the worktop
• Let new sealant cure fully before it gets wet
• Use gentle cleaners on the silicone
• Do not let bottles sit on the bead

Check the sealant now and then. A small split or a corner lifting is easy to spot, so if something does not look right, just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

There’s no need to wait for a full refurbishment. Sealant is a maintenance item, like the paint on a window frame, and renewing it as soon as it fails protects everything around it.
