Bathroom resealing in SO23: how it works
Showers work their sealant harder than baths. Tray edges, screen profiles and wet room joints all rely on silicone to stay watertight. They’re resealed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone, tooled smooth so water runs off instead of sitting in a ridge. We work on shower trays & enclosures, sinks & splashbacks and wet rooms, and the jobs we see most are gaps between the worktop and the wall and two layers of silicone, both failing.
The work is kept neat and contained to the joints we’re treating, so you can get on with your day. Expect the work to take a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen.
- First, each joint is checked for movement and signs of water.
- The old silicone is cut out completely, along with the film it leaves on the tiles.
- Joints are degreased and any mould is treated.
- With the joint dry, and any bath loaded with water, a single bead of anti-fungal silicone is applied.
- We tool the bead to a neat finish and give you the cure time, generally around 24 hours.
What affects the price in SO23
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. 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.

Bathroom resealing across SO23: local notes
Our bathroom resealing work across SO23 covers homes, rentals and businesses, in Winchester, Hyde and Weeke and well beyond. Wherever the job is, all the old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Hard water across most of the South East leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings. Whatever the job in SO23, surfaces are cleaned back properly before new sealant goes in.
Hyde: Rented homes near Winchester station change hands often, and a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for. If you look after a building such as St Bede Church of England Primary School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.
Landlord and commercial work in SO23
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
We also work for property managers and facilities teams. We can quote a run of properties together, and we’re fully insured.
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:
- Look for lifting corners and small gaps now and then
- Don’t leave water standing on kitchen joints
- Wipe the sealant dry after showering
- Never pick at the silicone with a blade
Have a look at the joints every few months. A small split or a corner lifting is easy to spot, and if anything looks wrong, just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
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.
Why deal with it now?
Sorting it now is quick: it takes a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers. Wait for a leak and you may be looking at panels off, drying out and redecorating too.

Should I try it myself first?
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.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
SO23: your questions answered
Is it worth trying it myself?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Can you reseal around my kitchen sink and worktop?
Yes. The old sealant is cut out and the joint degreased, because cooking grease stops silicone sticking, then we reseal in a colour to suit.
Can tenants book the work?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure your landlord agrees.
When can I use the bath or shower again?
After around 24 hours in most cases. We will tell you the cure time for the product we used.
Does someone need to be in?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, so we never do it.
How do I get a quote for bathroom resealing in SO23?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. We agree the price before any work begins.
