Bathroom resealing in GU51: how it works

Showers work their sealant harder than baths. Trays, enclosures, screen profiles and wet room floors all need a flexible, waterproof seal. Each gets a bead of anti-fungal sanitary silicone, tooled smooth so water runs off instead of sitting in a ridge. We work on kitchen worktops & upstands, baths and basins & vanity units, and the jobs we see most are shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop and cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone.

Our applicators work methodically: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. For most jobs that takes a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers, and the area is left clean.

  1. First the area is protected and every bit of old sealant removed.
  2. Next, the joint is cleaned and any mould is treated.
  3. We let it dry fully and fill the bath with water before sealing.
  4. New anti-fungal silicone goes on in a colour to suit and is tooled to a clean finish.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can get wet, generally after around 24 hours.

Bathrooms and kitchens across GU51

In GU51, bathroom resealing takes in flats, houses, rentals and businesses, in Fleet, Cove and Elvetham Heath and well beyond. The method is the same everywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and dried, and a fresh finish laid.

The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, though outside sealant still needs a dry, clean joint, so work across GU51 is planned around the weather.

Fleet: Managing a site like Heatherside Junior School? Then we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. For an older house near a landmark such as Fleet Methodist Church, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

For landlords and businesses

Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.

Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. We can quote for more than one property at once.

Common problems we fix in GU51

Older sealant shrinks and hardens. Along worktops it tends to pull back from the wall, opening a hairline gap that lets water and crumbs in. Heat from the hob and strong sprays speed it along.

Any of these means the joints need attention:

  • Sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away
  • Smears of silicone across the tiles
  • Water escaping at the shower enclosure
  • Mouldy sealant that has gone black

Leave it or put it right?

Most of the work in a good reseal happens before any silicone goes on: cutting out every trace of the old bead, cleaning, treating mould and letting the joint dry. Without that preparation, the new bead will not last.

Comparing quotes

  • How the joint is cleaned and prepared
  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether they’re fully insured
  • What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant

Should I try it myself first?

Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.

A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.

What affects the cost of bathroom resealing

Call for a quick quote. The main things that affect it are:

  • The number and length of the joints
  • The number of rooms or windows
  • Access and height
  • How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.

What to tell us for a quote

A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:

  • A few pictures by email, if you can
  • The problem you’ve noticed
  • Whether it has been sealed before
  • How many joints, rooms or windows are involved

GU51 questions

Can I choose the colour of the sealant?

White and clear are the most common choices, but other colours can be used to suit tiles and worktops. Let us know your preference when you ask for a quote.

Can mouldy silicone be sorted out?

Yes. Mould inside the bead rarely cleans out for good, so we cut it out, treat the joint and reseal with anti-fungal silicone.

Do you guarantee your resealing?

Yes. All our work comes with a 12-month guarantee, and we’re fully insured.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often happy for the work to be arranged.

Can you do several jobs on one visit?

Yes, and it often makes sense. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit.

What should I tell you?

Just the basics: where it is, what you’ve noticed and how we reach it. After that, simply phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

Do the sealants smell?

Some sealants have a smell while they cure, but it fades. Ventilation helps.
