Landlord and commercial work in Barcombe Mills
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. We can quote for more than one property at once.
Can I do it myself?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, 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.
How we quote for bathroom resealing
The price is agreed before any work begins. It takes into account:
- The amount of work
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Which sealant suits the joint
- Any mould that needs treating
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, plus any working-time requirements on site. Ask us for a quote and we’ll go through it with you.
What we need to know
To help us quote quickly, please include:
- Whether it has been sealed before
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Roughly how big the job is
For a quote, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us where the job is and what the problem looks like. We’ll give you a clear price before any work starts.

Leave it or put it right?
Fresh sealant smartens a bathroom or kitchen with very little disruption, which helps when a home is being let or put on the market. Lumpy sealant with smears on the tiles has the opposite effect, and it’s harder to put right later. Older cottages and farmhouses around Barcombe Mills can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
There are no prices on our website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will talk you through it.

How the visit works
Once we’re on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. Most jobs then take two to three hours for a typical bath, depending on how much old sealant there is. For a village or hamlet like Barcombe Mills, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We look at every joint first and check for movement or leaks.
- The old silicone is cut out completely, along with the film it leaves on the tiles.
- The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
- With the joint dry, and any bath loaded with water, a single bead of anti-fungal silicone is applied.
- We tool the bead to a neat finish and give you the cure time, generally around 24 hours.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

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. Where the sealant around the visible edge has failed, we renew it.
Kitchen worktops & upstands
Upstands and back edges are cut out, cleaned of grease and resealed, because cooking grease stops sealant bonding. Proper degreasing is what helps the new joint last.
Barcombe Mills: your questions answered
Do you cover Barcombe Mills for bathroom resealing?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Barcombe Mills is part of that. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Cooksbridge station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can go on one quote. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we tidy up before we go.
Which products do you use?
It depends on the joint: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Is it worth trying it myself?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.
Will there be a smell?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures, but it fades. Opening a window helps.
Is it OK to put new sealant on top of the old bead?
No. A bead laid over old silicone soon starts to come away, because silicone doesn’t bond to silicone. We remove the old bead completely before resealing.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes, every time. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Bathrooms and kitchens in Barcombe Mills
Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
Letting a property close to Cooksbridge station? Then a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for. Schools such as Barcombe Church of England Primary School are buildings too, and its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. For an older house near a landmark such as The Parish Church of St Mary, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

How to look after the new joints
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:
- Keep bottles off the sealant line
- Check the joints every few months for splits or lifting
- Let new sealant cure fully before it gets wet
- Open a window or run the fan so the room dries
Good ventilation does more than any cleaner. Run the extractor fan during and after a shower, so the silicone gets a chance to dry.
A failed kitchen joint is easy to miss. Water gets behind the upstand and into the edge of a laminate worktop, where it can make the board swell. A reseal in time can save the worktop.
