Our bathroom resealing service in RG8

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 drop us an email, and we’ll give you a clear price for bathroom resealing in RG8. We work on wet rooms, sinks & splashbacks and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people get in touch are shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop and two layers of silicone, both failing.

When we arrive, we look over the joints with you first, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work begins. Most jobs take a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen.

  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. Baths are filled first, then anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied in a colour to suit.
  5. We finish the joint, clear up and tell you how long to leave it before it gets wet.

Where we work in RG8

RG8 has homes of every age, old and new, with plenty of rented property in places like Purley on Thames, Goring and Pangbourne. Sound sealant and clean grout keep water out and rooms looking cared for.

From Victorian terraces to post-war new towns and modern estates, homes across the South East and London cover every era. Each needs the right sealant for its age and materials, wherever it is in RG8.

Purley on Thames: Letting a property close to Tilehurst station? Then fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay. If you live in an older home near Church of St Mary, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

Can I do it myself?

If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.

A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.

Landlord and commercial work in RG8

Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.

In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so we plan the work room by room. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.

Aftercare tips

No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:

  • Give the silicone its full cure time
  • Squeegee the walls and tray after use
  • Stick to a soft cloth and a mild cleaner
  • Wipe up water along the back of the worktop

Give the silicone time to cure before it gets wet, which is normally around 24 hours. After that, a quick wipe after showering helps keep it clean.

A split bead lets water through every time the bath or shower is used. Over time that water reaches floors, walls and ceilings. Resealing early stops it.

What affects the cost of bathroom resealing

Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:

  • Any mould that needs treating
  • How easy the joints are to reach
  • Working hours on commercial sites
  • The size of the job

No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part, and we will 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 ask for a quote, tell us:

  • Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
  • The address or postcode of the job
  • The type of property
  • What’s wrong with the joints now

There’s no standard price list, because every job is different. Instead, we give you a clear quote for your job. To arrange one, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Why act early?

Dealing with sealant early is a short job: it takes a couple of hours for a single bath or shower. Wait for a leak and you may be looking at panels off, drying out and redecorating too.

RG8 questions

My sealant has gone black. Can you sort it?

Yes, by replacing the sealant. Cleaning products may lighten it, but the lasting fix is new anti-fungal silicone on a clean, treated joint. Airing the room well helps stop it returning.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it often makes sense. Doing several areas at once is usually more efficient.

Will the old sealant be removed?

Always. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, so we never do it.

What do you need from me for a quote?

The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. If you can, email a few photos.

Does the resealing come with a guarantee?

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

Do you cover RG8?

Yes. We work in RG8 and the rest of Oxfordshire, as part of our work across South East England, London and Scotland. To book, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Do you work for letting agents?

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