Bathroom resealing across GU32: what to expect

The bead of silicone around a bath, tray or worktop is what keeps water out of the gaps. When it splits, shrinks or turns black, water gets behind it. Every trace of the old sealant is taken out and replaced with anti-fungal sanitary silicone. Typical jobs include smears of silicone across the tiles and failed sealant on the screen profile, on sinks & splashbacks, basins & vanity units and wet rooms.

Once we’re on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. After that, the work takes a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen.

1. We start by protecting the area and stripping out the old bead, including the film left on the tiles.
2. The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
3. Once it’s dry, any bath is filled so the bead is laid with it at its heaviest.
4. New anti-fungal silicone goes on in a colour to suit and is tooled to a clean finish.
5. Finally we tidy up and explain the cure time before we leave.

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

• Wipe the sealant dry after showering
• Look for lifting corners and small gaps now and then
• Keep the fan on for a while after bathing
• Give the silicone its full cure time

In a kitchen, do not let water sit along the back of the worktop. The drier the joint stays, the longer it lasts.

A split bead lets water through every time the bath or shower is used. Over time that water reaches floors, walls and ceilings. Early resealing closes the gap before damage is done.
