Bathroom resealing across ME3: what to expect

The secret of a lasting bead is the preparation. The old sealant is removed to the last smear, after which the joint is degreased and any mould treated. Only once it’s dry does the new bead go on. Typical jobs include black mould in the silicone that won’t clean off and water getting behind the bath panel, on basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and baths.

There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The work itself takes two to three hours for a typical bath, depending on how much old sealant there is.

  1. First the area is protected and every bit of old sealant removed, including the film left on the tiles.
  2. The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
  3. The joint is left to dry, and baths are filled with water first.
  4. We apply anti-fungal sanitary silicone in one even bead and tool it neatly.
  5. Finally we tidy up and explain the cure time before we leave.

What’s near Hoo St Werburgh

We work in homes and buildings around Church of St Werburgh, Hoo St Werburgh Primary School and Marlborough Centre and The Chequer's Public House and the streets around them. Hoo St Werburgh’s nearest station is Gillingham (Kent) station, about 2.7 miles south. Nearby you will also find Upnor Castle (1.9 miles south-west) and Huguenot Museum (3.5 miles south-west). Not far away are Bishop Saltings and Gad's Hill.

Bathrooms and kitchens across ME3

In ME3, bathroom resealing takes in flats, houses, rentals and businesses, in Rochester, Strood and Hoo St Werburgh and well beyond. The method is the same everywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and dried, and a fresh finish laid.

Hard water across most of the South East leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings. Whatever the job in ME3, surfaces are cleaned back properly before new sealant goes in. ME3 includes coastal places, where outside joints face more wind, rain and salt than they would inland. Joints on seaward walls tend to fail first.

Hoo St Werburgh: If you live in an older home near Church of St Werburgh, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Hoo St Werburgh Primary School and Marlborough Centre, 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.

Common problems we fix in ME3

Sealant laid on a damp, dusty or greasy joint never bonds properly. Soap residue, oils and leftover silicone film all get in the way, so a rushed job can start to lift early.

Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:

  • Two layers of silicone, both failing
  • Lumpy, uneven sealant from a DIY attempt
  • Mouldy sealant that has gone black
  • Water getting behind the bath panel

For landlords and businesses

From a single let to a portfolio, the work is the same standard: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.

We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.

Leave it or put it right?

Tired sealant isn’t a reason to replace a bath or shower. Replacing the joint is normally all it takes. If we find a deeper problem, you will hear it from us.

Questions to ask before you book

  • What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
  • How the joint is cleaned and prepared
  • What guarantee comes with the work
  • Whether you can choose the colour

Surface by surface

Basins & vanity units

Basin joints are short and close to eye level: the bead is right in front of you, so it’s tooled cleanly and evenly, finished in a colour that suits the basin.

Wet rooms

Not every wet room leak is a sealant problem. We reseal the joints and will tell you if the water seems to be coming from somewhere else.

What affects the cost of bathroom resealing

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

  • Which sealant suits the joint
  • How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
  • Any working-time requirements on site
  • How easy the joints are to reach

No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference.

Helping us quote

There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can tell us:

  • Photos by email, if that is easy
  • The problem you’ve noticed
  • Where the job is, and your postcode
  • How we’d reach the joints

Asking for a quote is easy: let us know the job and the location. A few photos by email make the job easier to understand, and we will come back to you with a quote.

FAQs for ME3

Are you an approved applicator?

Yes. We’re ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.

Is white the only colour available?

There’s a choice: clear, white and colours chosen to suit the room. We can help you pick when we quote.

Are you insured?

Yes. We’re fully insured.

Is it OK to put new sealant on top of the old bead?

No. New silicone will not bond to old silicone, so it peels away and hides mould and water. We always take the old sealant out completely.

How long does a bath or shower reseal take?

It takes a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen. We will confirm how long your job needs when we quote.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for householders, landlords, letting agents, businesses and hotels.

Does the resealing come with a guarantee?

Yes. We give a 12-month guarantee on every job, and we’re fully insured.
