Bathroom resealing for Horndean homes and businesses

How the job changes by surface

Sinks & splashbacks

The edge of an inset sink is a common place for water to get under the worktop. We reseal the visible edge of the sink where it has failed.

Basins & vanity units

Vanity units have long, worktop-style joints against the wall. If water gets in, the cabinet underneath can swell, so a neat, continuous bead matters.

How we handle bathroom resealing in Horndean

Kitchens need the same care as bathrooms. Worktop upstands, sink edges and splashback joints all take splashes every day, and water that gets into the back edge of a worktop can swell the board. Kitchen joints get a sealant suited to kitchens, colour-matched where it shows. We work on sinks & splashbacks, shower trays & enclosures and baths, and the jobs we see most are failed sealant on the screen profile and black mould in the silicone that won’t clean off.

Most bathrooms in a town like Horndean are in family homes, used every day, where sealant and grout take a lot of daily wear. Black mould along the bath, a lifting bead by the sink or crumbling grout in the shower are the usual signs.

There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.

Bathrooms and kitchens in Horndean

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.

For an older house near a landmark such as Saint Wilfrid's, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them. Managing a site like Horndean Technology College? Then its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. Rented homes near Rowlands Castle station change hands often, and mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets.

What sealant work cannot fix

We’d rather tell you now than do work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • A cracked shower tray or bath (that needs repair or replacement)
  • Movement from a bath with loose feet or no proper support
  • Water getting in through the grout rather than the sealant

Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Joints and surfaces we work on

  • Baths
  • Wet rooms
  • Kitchen worktops & upstands
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Sinks & splashbacks
  • Shower trays & enclosures

Should I try it myself first?

The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.

Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.

Common questions in Horndean

Do you work for landlords with property near Rowlands Castle station?

Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners, and several properties can be quoted together. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.

Can you do bathroom resealing in Horndean?

Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Horndean is part of that. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us what needs doing.

How long does a bath or shower reseal take?

It takes two to three hours for a typical bath, depending on how much old sealant there is. You will know how long to expect before any work starts.

Do you work for hotels and businesses?

Yes, regularly. We can plan bigger jobs in stages to suit the site.

Do you remove the old sealant?

Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, and it’s something we never do.

Can you do several jobs on one visit?

Yes, we can. More than one area can be quoted together.

Are you fully insured?

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

Can I choose the colour of the sealant?

White and clear are the most common choices, and other colours are available to suit tiles, trays and worktops. Tell us what you’d like when you get in touch.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Horndean

Housing providers, facilities teams and property managers book us too in Horndean and across Hampshire. We can quote a run of properties together, and we are fully insured.

If you manage several properties in or around Horndean, jobs at different addresses can go on one quote. Send us the addresses and the work at each.

What affects the quote in Horndean

We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:

  • The number of rooms or windows
  • Whether there’s mould to deal with
  • Access and height
  • Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out

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 play a part.

What we need to know

Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Please mention:

  • How we’d reach the joints
  • Any previous sealing or DIY work
  • The rough size of the job
  • Where the property is

Call for a quick quote, or send an email if you’d rather. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we will talk you through the work and give you a clear quote.

Keeping the joints in good condition

To keep the joints looking good and working properly:

  • Keep an eye on the corners, where splits start
  • Wipe the sealant dry after showering
  • Never pick at the silicone with a blade
  • Keep bottles off the sealant line

Have a look at the joints every few months. A small split or a corner lifting is easy to spot, so if something doesn’t look right, just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Worktop joints fail quietly. Water gets behind the upstand and into the edge of a laminate worktop, and the board underneath can swell. Resealing before that happens protects the worktop.

What happens on the day

Our applicators work methodically: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. For most jobs that takes two to three hours for a typical bath, depending on how much old sealant there is. In Horndean, parking is rarely complicated, though it helps to know about driveways or restrictions, and let us know if the work is upstairs, in a flat or up high outside.

  1. Protection goes down around the bath, shower or worktop.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
