Our bathroom resealing service in TD4

With over 20 years in the trade, we reseal baths, showers and kitchens in homes across TD4. We’re fully insured ARBOMaster approved applicators, and every job carries our one-year guarantee. We work on kitchen worktops & upstands, basins & vanity units and wet rooms, and common reasons people get in touch are failed sealant on the screen profile and cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone.

The work is kept neat and contained to the joints we’re treating. The job normally takes a couple of hours for a single bath or shower.

  1. We look at every joint first and check for movement or leaks.
  2. Every trace of the old bead is removed, including the thin smear on the tiles.
  3. The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
  4. When the joint is dry, and a bath has been filled with water, the new silicone goes on.
  5. We tool the bead to a neat finish and give you the cure time, usually around 24 hours.

Quotes for bathroom resealing in TD4

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

  • Access and height
  • Any working-time requirements on site
  • The product the joint needs
  • Any mould that needs treating

Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part, and we will explain the quote if you ask.

Asking for a quote

When you call or email, these details help:

  • Where the job is, and your postcode
  • Photos by email, if that is easy
  • Whether it has been sealed before
  • How many joints, rooms or windows are involved

Getting a quote is simple: let us know the job and the location and its rough size. A few photos by email make the job easier to understand, and we’ll take it from there.

When it is not the sealant

Sealant is not the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. It won’t solve:

  • Tiles that have come away from the wall
  • Water getting in through the grout rather than the sealant
  • Movement from a bath with loose feet or no proper support

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around TD4, jobs at different addresses can go on one quote. Send us the addresses and the work at each.

We also work for property managers and facilities teams. Several sites can be quoted together.

Why act early?

Mould removers can fade the surface of a stained bead, but where mould is inside the silicone it usually comes back. The lasting answer is to remove the bead and start again.

What your quote should include

  • Whether the sealant suits the joint
  • How long the guarantee is
  • How much experience the applicator has
  • What insurance they hold

Aftercare tips

After the cure time, these simple habits help:

  • Keep an eye on the corners, where splits start
  • Use gentle cleaners on the silicone
  • Keep bottles off the sealant line
  • Avoid abrasive pads on the sealant

Keep bottles and razors off the sealant line, as they hold water against it. A quick squeegee after showering keeps water from sitting on the joint.

Watch for the early signs: lifting ends, gaps, dark shadows under the bead or a stain downstairs. If you spot one, it’s time to reseal.

TD4: your questions answered

Can landlords and businesses book you?

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

Do you take out the old sealant first?

Yes, every time. New silicone does not stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.

Does someone need to be in?

It depends on the job. Inside work needs someone to give us access.

How long does a bath or shower reseal take?

It depends on how many joints there are and how much old sealant has to come out. For most single baths or showers, allow a couple of hours.

Will there be a smell?

Sometimes, a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures.

Do you work in TD4?

Yes. From our base in Crawley, we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland, TD4 included.

Can tenants book the work?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are glad to have it sorted.
