Kitchen resealing in Reading. Don’t attempt to do it yourself if you don’t know what you are doing or you will ruin the look of your otherwise perfect kitchen. Yes, in theory, kitchen resealing should be a simple job but you need to remove old sealant first and thoroughly clean the area before you apply new sealant.

A homeowner from Reading contacted us after searching for handyman reading on Google and after seeing a number of pictures where we resealed baths, showers and kitchens and decided to give us a go. Apparently, someone resealed their kitchen 6 months ago and the sealant is coming off already. (See before pic). We are not sure what kind of sealant they used but it just came off in one piece. it wasn’t sticking to anything. There was even some water damage around the sink because it wasn’t sealed properly.

Why you should reseal a kitchen?

Resealing a kitchen is essential for maintaining its functionality, appearance, and longevity. Over time, the sealant around kitchen fixtures such as sinks, countertops, and backsplashes can deteriorate due to exposure to moisture, heat, and cleaning chemicals.

Resealing helps to prevent water damage, mold, and mildew growth by creating a waterproof barrier that seals gaps and cracks, particularly in areas prone to splashes or spills. This protects underlying surfaces from moisture penetration, which can lead to structural damage and costly repairs.

Furthermore, resealing enhances the aesthetic appeal of the kitchen by revitalizing the appearance of countertops, sinks, and tiled surfaces. Fresh sealant creates a clean and uniform finish, restoring the original beauty of the kitchen.
