Bathroom resealing in Bewbush
Sealant is the soft line between a bath, shower or worktop and the wall. When it splits, shrinks or turns black, water gets behind it. Our team cut the old bead out completely and lay a new one in anti-fungal sanitary silicone. If you have a messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal and a reseal done over the top of the old bead, we can help.
Around Bewbush, you’ll mostly find houses and bungalows, some older and some much newer. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do in a big town.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

Leave it or put it right?
Bleach and mould sprays may lighten black marks for a while, but where mould is inside the silicone it normally comes back. The lasting answer is to remove the bead and start again. In an older home around Bewbush, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the sealant itself.
The cost depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. We give a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

How to look after the new joints
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Stick to a soft cloth and a mild cleaner
- Don’t let bottles sit on the bead
- Open a window or run the fan so the room dries
- Wipe the sealant dry after showering
Good ventilation does more than any cleaner. Run the extractor fan during and after a shower, so the silicone gets a chance to dry.
Do not wait for a refit to deal with failed sealant. Like paintwork, sealant needs renewing from time to time, and renewing it as soon as it fails protects everything around it.
Bewbush homes and their sealant
Bewbush is part of Crawley, one of the post-war new towns. Many homes date from the post-war decades, so bathrooms and kitchens may be on their second or third set of sealant. New sealant will not stick to old, so the old layers have to come out first. Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
If you live in an older home near St Alban's, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. If you let a flat or house near Ifield station, mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets.
Bewbush is about 1 mile west of Crawley, in West Sussex. Bewbush gets the same service as everywhere we cover: the old material taken out, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee. Our West Sussex coverage runs to 371 places, Bewbush among them.

What we do, step by step
On the day, we start by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work starts. Most jobs take a couple of hours for a single bath or shower. Parking around Bewbush is generally easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. If the job is outside, tell us about side access and how high the joints are.
- We look at every joint first and check for movement or leaks.
- Every trace of the old bead is removed, including the thin smear 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.
Preparing for the visit

- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

Advice

Do older homes in Bewbush need their sealant replacing?
Often, yes: cracked, shrunken or mouldy sealant has done its job. The key is cutting all the old sealant out, as new sealant won’t bond to it.

Yes. Hotels, offices and other businesses use us.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. ARBOMaster is the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants, and we’re part of it.
Can I choose the colour of the sealant?
White and clear are the most common choices, but other colours can be used to suit tiles and worktops. Let us know your preference when you ask for a quote.
Do you do kitchens as well as bathrooms?
Yes, often alongside a bathroom. Next to the sink we use a food-safe product where it’s needed.
Do you cover Bewbush?
We do. Bewbush is part of the area we cover.

How we quote for bathroom resealing
The price is agreed before any work begins. It takes into account:
- How much there is to do
- Access and height
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- Any working-time requirements on site
Leaving a failed joint normally makes the job bigger, not smaller, because water and mould keep working on it. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you an honest view and a quote.
What to tell us for a quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- A few photos by email, if you can
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
Every job is quoted individually, so start by telling us what you need. Simply call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and describe the job, and pictures are welcome.
DIY versus a professional finish
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.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
What the job involves on each surface
Shower trays & enclosures
Water often gets past the wall profile of a shower enclosure. We reseal it along with the base of the enclosure, following the enclosure maker’s guidance on which side to seal.
Baths
Baths move more than any other fitting, so it’s filled with water before the bead goes on. That way the joint is laid with the bath at its heaviest and isn’t torn the first time it’s used.
Signs you need bathroom resealing in Bewbush
Black mould is behind a lot of resealing. Bathrooms without good ventilation give mould all the damp it needs, and once it has grown into the bead, cleaning rarely gets it out.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- A joint torn by a bath that flexes
- Water escaping at the shower enclosure
- Water getting behind the bath panel
- Mouldy sealant that has gone black
Managing a site like The Bewbush Academy? Then we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.
