What sealant work can’t fix

In fairness, some problems need a different trade:

  • A leaking waste, trap or valve
  • Tiles that have come away from the wall
  • Water getting in through the grout rather than the sealant

How we handle bathroom resealing in Burghfield Hill

Across Burghfield Hill, the joints we reseal are the ones that fail in any home: the long edge of the bath, the base of the shower tray, the back of the basin and the line along the worktop. Every joint is cut out, cleaned and left dry before it’s resealed. We work on kitchen worktops & upstands, sinks & splashbacks and shower trays & enclosures, and the jobs we see most are mouldy sealant that has gone black and two layers of silicone, both failing.

Homes around Burghfield Hill range from older cottages to more recent houses. In older homes, walls and floors can move a little more, so the right flexible sealant matters.

Big or small, it’s backed by our 12-month guarantee.

Quotes for bathroom resealing in Burghfield Hill

The price is agreed before any work begins. It’s based on:

  • How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
  • Whether the work is at height
  • The amount of work
  • Working hours on commercial sites

A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

Helping us quote

When you contact us, these details help:

  • Photos by email, if that is easy
  • The type of property
  • Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
  • What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking

Asking for a quote is easy: let us know the job and the location. Photos by email help us understand the job, and we’ll take it from there.

The process

Good joint work is mostly preparation, so that is where we spend the time. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. In total, it generally takes a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen. Parking around Burghfield Hill is normally easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. If the job is outside, tell us about side access and how high the joints are.

  1. We cover the area around the joints we’re working on.
  2. Old sealant is sliced away and the residue removed.
  3. We treat any mould and let the joint dry properly.
  4. Any bath is filled with water, then we lay a bead of anti-fungal silicone in white, clear or a matching colour.
  5. We finish the joint, clear up and tell you how long to leave it before it gets wet.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
  • Clear the area around the work

Signs you need bathroom resealing in Burghfield Hill

Baths and trays move. Acrylic in particular gives slightly under the weight of water and a person, and a tray that is not fully bedded can rock. Over time the joint tears or pulls away from the tile.

If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:

  • Smears of silicone across the tiles
  • Leaking joints on a shower screen
  • Shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop
  • A joint torn by a bath that flexes

Managing a site like Garland Junior School? Then washroom and kitchen sealant there needs the same care as at home, and schools and businesses are part of our work as well as homes.

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether all the old sealant comes out first
  • What the cure time is
  • Whether the sealant suits the joint
  • Is VAT in the price?

Common questions in Burghfield Hill

I let a flat near Mortimer station. Can you help?

Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear price.

Is Burghfield Hill in your area for bathroom resealing?

Yes, Burghfield Hill is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.

Should I try DIY first?

That depends on the joint. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.

Do you work for hotels and businesses?

Yes. We work in offices, washrooms, hotels and other commercial premises. Working times can be discussed when we quote.

What information do you need?

Just the basics: the address or postcode, what’s wrong and any access issues. Then call 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Will it make a mess?

Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.

Where do you work from?

We are based in Crawley, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.

Will the old sealant be removed?

Yes, always, and completely. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.

Burghfield Hill homes and their sealant

Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.

Homes close to Church of St Mary include some older properties, and walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. Letting a property close to Mortimer station? Then fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay.

Different surfaces, different methods

Kitchen worktops & upstands

Water behind a laminate worktop can make the edge swell. A continuous bead along the back keeps water out.

Baths

The long joint down the side of a bath is where most leaks start, especially under a shower. It gets one smooth bead of anti-fungal silicone, tooled so water can’t sit on it.

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Look for lifting corners and small gaps now and then
  • Run the extractor fan during and after every shower
  • Keep bottles off the sealant line
  • Keep scourers and sharp tools away from the bead

Check the sealant now and then. Small splits and lifting ends are easy to catch early, and if anything looks wrong, just call 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Don’t wait for a refit to deal with failed sealant. Sealant is a maintenance item, like the paint on a window frame, and renewing it as soon as it fails protects everything around it.
