Bathroom resealing in RM11: how it works

The secret of a lasting bead is the preparation. Every bit of old silicone comes out, down to the thin film left on the tiles, then the joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould. Only once it’s dry does the new bead go on. Common call-outs are for a bead that has pulled away from the tiles and a reseal done over the top of the old bead, on kitchen worktops & upstands, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units.

At the end, we look at the finished work together. The visit itself generally takes a couple of hours for a single bath or shower, depending on the size of the job.

  1. We start by protecting the area and stripping out the old bead.
  2. We clean and degrease the joint and treat any mould.
  3. The joint is left to dry, and baths are filled with water first.
  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.

Bathroom resealing across RM11: local notes

In RM11, bathroom resealing takes in flats, houses, rentals and businesses, from Romford, Hornchurch and Harold Wood to the quieter places in between. Wherever the job is, all the old material comes out before anything new goes in.

Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings. For any job in RM11, joints are cleaned back properly before anything new goes in.

Heath Park: Letting a property close to Gidea Park station? Then mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets. Heath Park is in London, so parking needs planning: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book.

What we’re called out for in RM11

Silicone does not last for ever. Every shower, every splash and every wipe with a cleaner take their toll over the years, so its life depends on how the room is used, cleaned and aired.

Any of these means the joints need attention:

  • Water getting behind the kitchen upstand
  • Leaking joints on a shower screen
  • New sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting
  • A joint torn by a bath that flexes

Surface by surface

Wet rooms

In a wet room, the joints between floor and walls take standing water. They’re resealed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone, and our work is on the visible joints only.

Basins & vanity units

A vanity top has a joint along the wall and sometimes at the sides. Water that gets behind can damage the unit, so a neat, continuous bead matters.

Leave it or put it right?

A quick bead over the top of the old one might look better for a while, but it can’t stick to what’s underneath. It lifts, traps water and grows mould behind it, and the next reseal means two layers to cut out.

Questions to ask before booking

  • How hidden problems are handled
  • How long to leave it before use
  • Whether they seal over old material or remove it
  • Whether the sealant suits the joint

What affects the quote in RM11

There’s no set price list, because no two jobs are the same. What we look at:

  • How much there is to do
  • Working hours on commercial sites
  • The product the joint needs
  • How many areas need sealing

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.

Helping us quote

There’s no need for technical detail. Just tell us:

  • Roughly how big the job is
  • The address or postcode of the job
  • A few photos by email, if you can
  • What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking

Need a quote? Please ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details. You will know what we plan to do, and what it will cost, before any work begins.

Honest limits

We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • A bath or tray that moves because it is not properly supported
  • Failed grout lines across the wall
  • Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

Questions from RM11

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, we do. We work in homes, commercial premises and hotels, and we’re fully insured.

Can you quote for more than one area?

Yes, we can. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.

Do you come to RM11?

Yes. From our base in Crawley, we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.

What sealant do you use?

We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice.

Are you insured?

Yes, we are fully insured for domestic and commercial work.

Can mouldy silicone be sorted out?

Yes, we replace the mouldy bead. Cleaning products may lighten it, but the lasting fix is new anti-fungal silicone on a clean, treated joint. Good ventilation helps keep it away.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
