Your questions about bathroom resealing in Newport

Do you take on hotel work around Newport?

Yes. Hotel and guest-house work is part of what we do. Jobs can be programmed room by room, with out-of-hours working possible to arrange.

What guarantee comes with bathroom resealing in Newport?

Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, wherever it is. We’re also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.

Is it messy?

Not at all. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.

Will the old sealant be removed?

Yes, every time. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so the joint is cleaned back first.

Can you reseal around my kitchen sink and worktop?

Yes. Kitchen joints get extra degreasing before the new bead goes on, then a colour-matched bead is laid.

Will there be a smell?

That depends on the sealant. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all, and any smell fades as they cure.

Are you ARBOMaster approved?

Yes. We’re ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.

What sealant do you use?

Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, picked for each joint. We will tell you what we’re using and why.

Bathroom resealing in Newport

The secret of a lasting bead is the preparation. Every bit of old silicone comes out, down to the thin film left on the tiles, then the joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould. Only once it’s dry does the new bead go on. Typical jobs include splits where the tray meets the wall and gaps between the worktop and the wall, on shower trays & enclosures, sinks & splashbacks and baths.

Around Newport, it’s mostly busy family bathrooms and kitchens, which is hard on sealant and grout. Black mould along the bath, a lifting bead by the sink or crumbling grout in the shower are the usual signs.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after we’ve gone.

How to look after the new joints

No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:

  • Do not let bottles sit on the bead
  • Wipe the sealant dry after showering
  • Avoid abrasive pads on the sealant
  • Dry worktop joints after washing up

Check the sealant now and then. A small split or a corner lifting is easy to spot, and if anything looks wrong, just call 0345 464 0079 or email us.

There’s no need to wait for a full refurbishment. Sealant is a maintenance item, like the paint on a window frame, and renewing it as soon as it fails protects everything around it.

DIY sealant or a professional job?

If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.

A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.

What affects the quote in Newport

Your quote is based on your job. We take into account:

  • The size of the job
  • Any working-time requirements on site
  • Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
  • Whether there’s mould to deal with

Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

What we need to know

A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:

  • The rough size of the job
  • Any previous sealing or DIY work
  • Where the job is, and your postcode
  • The type of property

For a quote, call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the location and a short description of the problem. We’ll send you a clear quote before any work starts.

How the job changes by surface

Shower trays & enclosures

Shower trays are sealed to the wall, and enclosures are sealed to the tray and tiles. Both get soaked every time the shower runs, so each is cut out and renewed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone.

Sinks & splashbacks

Water getting under the rim of an inset sink can soak the worktop. Where the sealant around the visible edge has failed, we renew it.

Why deal with it now?

Dealing with sealant early is a short job: the work 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. In Newport, as anywhere, most leaks start as a small gap in a joint, and they’re far easier to fix early.

What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we ask about the job first.

Why us?

  • We are fully insured
  • 4.9 on Google from 180+ five-star reviews
  • Anti-fungal silicone where joints get wet
  • You choose the colour before work begins

When to call us in Newport

Not every tube in the shop is meant for a shower. Acrylic caulk and general-purpose sealants aren’t designed for a joint that is wet every day, so they crack, discolour or grow mould quickly. Wet areas call for a sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive.

Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:

  • Black spots spreading through the bead
  • Water escaping at the shower enclosure
  • Shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop
  • A reseal done over the top of the old bead

For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Nine Acres Primary School, 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.

10 questions to ask before you book

The process

There’s no need to move everything out before we come, just the space around the work. We protect the rest, and the work takes two to three hours for a typical bath, depending on how much old sealant there is in most cases. A visit in Newport needs access to the work and a place to park close by. For outside work, let us know about side access, gates and any upper-floor joints.

  1. We start by protecting the area and stripping out the old bead, including the film left on the tiles.
  2. Next, the joint is cleaned and any mould is treated.
  3. Once it’s dry, any bath is filled so the bead is laid with it at its heaviest.
  4. We apply anti-fungal sanitary silicone in one even bead and tool it neatly.
  5. Finally we tidy up and explain the cure time before we leave.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking restrictions
  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
  • Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
