Bighton Bathroom Resealing
Bathroom resealing across Bighton and nearby, with old sealant always removed completely and a 12-month guarantee.
- Black mould in the silicone that will not clean off
- Leaks into the floor or ceiling below
- A reseal done over the top of the old bead
How the job changes by surface
Kitchen worktops & upstands
Kitchen joints need more degreasing than bathroom ones, because cooking grease stops sealant bonding. The extra cleaning is what makes the bead last.
Basins & vanity units
Vanity units have long, worktop-style joints against the wall. Water that gets behind can damage the unit, so the joint is sealed in one unbroken line.
How we handle bathroom resealing in Bighton
The secret of a lasting bead is the preparation. The old sealant is removed to the last smear, after which the joint is degreased and any mould treated. Only once it’s dry does the new bead go on. If you have smears of silicone across the tiles and leaking joints on a shower screen, we can help, whatever the surface.
Homes around Bighton are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats. The work is the same as anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.
Our work is backed for twelve months, in Bighton and everywhere else we cover.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee.
We work for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for.
What we do, step by step
Our applicators work methodically: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. Typically it takes a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen and we leave things clean and tidy. For a village or hamlet like Bighton, 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.
- Protection goes down around the bath, shower or worktop.
- We cut away the old sealant and clean off what’s left.
- Mould is treated, then the joint is left to dry thoroughly.
- Baths are filled first, then anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied in a colour to suit.
- We finish the joint, clear up and tell you how long to leave it before it gets wet.
Before we arrive
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Clear the area around the work
Getting a quote
A good description makes for an accurate quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and email photos if that’s easy.

What happens if it’s left?
Tired sealant isn’t a reason to replace a bath or shower. A new bead often brings the whole room back, provided the bath, tray and tiles are in good order. If we find a deeper problem, you’ll hear it from us. In a small place like Bighton, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
What you get with us
- Domestic, commercial and hotel work
- Trusted Arbo and Everbuild sealants

How to look after the new joints
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Move toiletries away from the joint
- Dry the bead with a towel now and then
- Do not leave water standing on kitchen joints
- Open a window or run the fan so the room dries
In a kitchen, do not let water sit along the back of the worktop and keep hot pans off the bead. The drier the joint stays, the longer it lasts.
Small signs come before a leak: a corner lifting, a gap behind the bead, a dark line under the silicone or a damp patch on the ceiling below. Any of these means the joint needs attention.
Bathroom resealing around Bighton
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.
In the older streets around Church of All Saints, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. Managing a site like Perins School? Then its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

DIY versus a professional finish
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.

Common questions in Bighton
Is Bighton in your area for bathroom resealing?
Yes, Bighton is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and let us know what needs doing.
Is there a guarantee on bathroom resealing in Bighton?
Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, wherever it is. We are also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done and we will quote it together.
Will there be a smell?
Possibly a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes, regularly. Larger jobs can be planned room by room or area by area to suit the site.
When can I use the bath or shower again?
The surface skins over fairly quickly, but the bead needs longer to cure right through. Keep water off it for around 24 hours, or as long as we advise for that product.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes, every time. New silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Is it worth trying it myself?
You can, for simple jobs. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. If it doesn’t work out, we can redo it.
