What affects the cost of bathroom resealing
We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:
- When we can work, for business premises
- How many areas need sealing
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- The product the joint needs
There are no prices on our website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. Call for a quick quote and we’ll talk you through it.

Bathroom resealing in Alciston
We fill the bath before sealing it. The weight settles the bath to its lowest point, so the new joint isn’t pulled apart the first time it’s used. It’s a small step that rushed reseals tend to skip. We work on basins & vanity units, kitchen worktops & upstands and wet rooms, and people most often call us about black mould in the silicone that won’t clean off and damp behind the bath or under the tray.
Around Alciston, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. The work is the same as anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, in Alciston and everywhere else we cover.

When something else is needed
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what new sealant won’t do:
- Cracks in the tray itself rather than the joint
- A bath or tray that moves because it isn’t properly supported
- Cracked or missing grout between tiles (that’s regrouting)
If you are not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Signs you need bathroom resealing in Alciston
A bath shifts a little every time it’s filled and emptied. An acrylic bath flexes under load, and a tray that isn’t fully bedded can rock. That movement works at the bead until it splits or peels away.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- A messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal
- A joint torn by a bath that flexes
- New sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting
- Gaps between the worktop and the wall
If you live in an older home near The Parish Church, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

Why it’s worth doing now in Alciston
Dealing with sealant early is a short job: it takes two to three hours for a typical bath, depending on how much old sealant there is. Left until water gets through, the job can grow to lifting panels, drying out and decorating. In a small place like Alciston, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Combining jobs into one visit usually makes better use of the time than several visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We will give you a clear price for the lot.

What happens on the day
When we arrive, we start by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work starts. The work generally takes a couple of hours for a single bath or shower. Somewhere as small as Alciston, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- First the area is protected and every bit of old sealant removed, including the film left on the tiles.
- We clean and degrease the joint and treat any mould.
- Once it’s dry, any bath is filled so the bead is laid with it at its heaviest.
- We apply anti-fungal sanitary silicone in one even bead and tool it neatly.
- We clear away and tell you when it can get wet, normally after around 24 hours.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

Advice
Different surfaces, different methods
Kitchen worktops & upstands
The joint between worktop and wall takes splashes, crumbs and cleaning sprays. We seal them in a colour that suits the worktop.
Basins & vanity units
Basin joints are short and close to eye level: so we keep the line tidy and even, finished in a colour that suits the basin.
Alciston homes and their sealant
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
