How bathroom resealing works in TN30

Homes in TN30 have the same weak spots as anywhere else: bath edges, tray joints, basin backs and kitchen upstands. Each one is stripped, cleaned and dried before new silicone goes in. We work on baths, sinks & splashbacks and wet rooms, and people most often call us about gaps where the bath or tray has moved and black spots spreading through the bead.

There is not much for you to do on the day. Show us the job and we will take it from there. The work itself takes half a day or less for one room, longer when the kitchen is included from start to finish.

1. We protect the area and cut out all of the old sealant.
2. The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
3. Once it’s dry, any bath is filled so the bead is laid with it at its heaviest.
4. New anti-fungal silicone goes on in a colour to suit and is tooled to a clean finish.
5. We tidy up and give you the cure time, usually around 24 hours.

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

• Avoid abrasive pads on the sealant
• Wait for the cure time we give you
• Run the extractor fan during and after every shower
• Wipe up water along the back of the worktop

Treat the new bead gently when you clean: a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth is enough. Avoid scouring pads and anything sharp, because a damaged bead gives mould a foothold.

Mould that starts as a few spots spreads through the bead. When it has grown right through, it rarely cleans out, and nearby grout often goes the same way. Catching it early keeps it a simple reseal.

What affects the cost of bathroom resealing

We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:

• The product the joint needs
• How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
• Whether the work is at height
• Whether there’s mould to deal with

The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That is why we ask about the job first.
