About our bathroom resealing in Bilsham

Kitchens need the same care as bathrooms. Worktop upstands, sink edges and splashback joints all take splashes every day, and water that gets into the back edge of a worktop can swell the board. Kitchen joints get a sealant suited to kitchens, colour-matched where it shows. Common call-outs are for a joint torn by a bath that flexes and damp behind the bath or under the tray, across basins & vanity units, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures.

For a small place like Bilsham, bathroom resealing is planned like any other job: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

Aftercare tips

Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Use gentle cleaners on the silicone
  • Move toiletries away from the joint
  • Let new sealant cure fully before it gets wet
  • Check the joints every few months for splits or lifting

Give the silicone time to cure before it gets wet, following the cure time we give you. After that, a quick wipe after showering helps keep it clean.

Worktop joints fail quietly. Splashes run behind the back edge and soak into the worktop, and the board underneath can swell. A reseal in time can save the worktop.

Why deal with it now?

A failed joint gets more costly to put right the longer it’s left. Water that gets behind a bath soaks into the floor, the panel and sometimes the ceiling below, turning a small job into a building repair. Around Bilsham, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.

The cost depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. You will have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

  • Colour agreed with you before any work starts

Bathroom resealing around Bilsham

Bilsham is within about 2 miles of the coast. Near the coast, holiday lets and guest houses can see bathrooms used by one guest after another, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. 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.

Homes close to Bilsham Chapel include some older properties, and timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them. Schools such as Yapton CE Primary School are buildings too, and we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

How it works

There’s no need to move everything out, just the space around the work. Everything nearby is protected, and the job takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom for a typical job. For a village or hamlet like Bilsham, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.

  1. We look at every joint first and check for movement or leaks.
  2. The old silicone is cut out completely, along with the film it leaves on the tiles.
  3. The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
  4. When the joint is dry, and a bath has been filled with water, the new silicone goes on.
  5. The bead is tooled smooth and you are told the cure time, generally around 24 hours.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move anything stored near the joints
  • Let us know about parking restrictions
  • Mention if the joints have been sealed before

When to call us in Bilsham

Baths and trays move. An acrylic bath flexes under load, while a poorly supported tray can shift underfoot. That movement works at the bead until it splits or peels away.

If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:

  • Smears of silicone across the tiles
  • A reseal done over the top of the old bead
  • Black spots spreading through the bead
  • Shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop

If you let a flat or house near Barnham station, fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay.

Choosing a sealant specialist

Should I try it myself first?

Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.

If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.

How the job changes by surface

Shower trays & enclosures

A tray that rocks will split any sealant. We check for movement before we reseal, and if the tray needs refixing, we’ll say so.

Basins & vanity units

On a basin, neatness shows: the bead is right in front of you, so it’s tooled cleanly and evenly, finished in a colour that suits the basin.

What affects the cost of bathroom resealing

Every job gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
  • Mould in or behind the old joints
  • How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
  • Working hours on commercial sites

A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

What to tell us for a quote

What to tell us when you ask for a quote:

  • Pictures of the joints, sent by email
  • Whether it’s a home or a business
  • If someone has resealed it before
  • How we’d reach the joints

It all starts with a short chat. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job, and we will talk you through what we’d do. Whenever you’re ready, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

Yes, Bilsham is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.

Do you do commercial work?

Are you fully insured?

Yes. We’re fully insured for every job we do.

Can you get rid of the black mould in my sealant?

Yes. Mould inside the bead rarely cleans out for good, so the bead comes out, the joint is treated and new anti-fungal silicone goes in.

What sealant do you use?

The product depends on the job: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.

Do you take out the old sealant first?

Yes, always, and completely. New silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
