About bathroom resealing in KT6

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 ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email, and we’ll give you a clear quote before any work starts. Common call-outs are for leaks into the floor or ceiling below and black mould in the silicone that won’t clean off, across sinks & splashbacks, baths and wet rooms.

There’s no need to move everything out, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the job takes a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers in most cases.

  1. Protection goes down around the bath, shower or worktop.
  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.

How we quote

A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.

Bathroom resealing across KT6: local notes

From Surbiton, Chessington and Seething Wells to its smaller places, homes across KT6 have bathrooms and kitchens of every age. Sealant and grout wear out in all of them, whether it’s a family bathroom, a rented flat or a hotel en suite.

From Victorian terraces to post-war new towns and modern estates, homes across the South East and London cover every era. The right sealant depends on the age and materials of the building, wherever it is in KT6.

Surbiton: As a London address, Surbiton can be tricky for parking: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway. Managing a site like Lime Tree Primary School? Then 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 we’re called out for in KT6

No sealant lasts indefinitely. Daily water, heat and cleaning products slowly wear it down, so its life depends on how the room is used, cleaned and aired.

Any of these means the joints need attention:

  • Two layers of silicone, both failing
  • Lumpy, uneven sealant from a DIY attempt
  • Gaps where the bath or tray has moved
  • Shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop

Honest limits

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Failed grout lines across the wall
  • A leaking waste, trap or valve
  • A cracked shower tray or bath (that needs repair or replacement)

Aftercare tips

Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:

  • Dry worktop joints after washing up
  • Keep scourers and sharp tools away from the bead
  • Keep an eye on the corners, where splits start
  • Clean with a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth

Give the silicone time to cure before it gets wet, following the cure time we give you. Once it’s cured, wiping it down after use keeps it looking new.

Don’t wait for a refit to deal with failed sealant. Like paintwork, sealant needs renewing from time to time, and renewing it as soon as it fails protects everything around it.

DIY sealant or a professional job?

If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

How the job changes by surface

Shower trays & enclosures

Shower trays are sealed to the wall, and enclosures are sealed to the tray and tiles. Both get soaked every time the shower runs, so each is cut out and renewed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone.

Sinks & splashbacks

Water getting under the rim of an inset sink can soak the worktop. Where the sealant around the visible edge has failed, we renew it.

Your questions about bathroom resealing in KT6

Do you do commercial work?

Yes. Commercial and hotel work is a large part of what we do, as well as homes. We can talk about working times when we quote.

Can tenants book the work?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Do you do kitchens as well as bathrooms?

Yes. We reseal worktop upstands, sinks and splashbacks, in a kitchen-suitable sealant, matched to the worktop where it’s on show.

Can I do it myself?

For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.

Are you insured?

Yes. We are fully insured.

Does someone need to be in?

That depends on where the joints are. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in.

My sealant has gone black. Can you sort it?

Yes. Once mould has grown into the silicone, it usually cannot be cleaned out for good, so we cut it out, treat the joint and reseal with anti-fungal silicone.
