- Failed sealant on the screen profile
What we’re called out for in Bradwell Waterside
With age, silicone loses its stretch. Along worktops it tends to pull back from the wall, opening a hairline gap that lets water and crumbs in. Hot pans and harsh cleaners do not help.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Smears of silicone across the tiles
- Gaps between the worktop and the wall
- Water escaping at the shower enclosure
- Water getting behind the bath panel
If you live in an older home near Church of St Thomas, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

Bathroom resealing in Bradwell Waterside
Sealant is the soft line between a bath, shower or worktop and the wall. Once it cracks or goes mouldy, water starts to find its way through and into the wall or floor. Every trace of the old sealant is taken out and replaced with anti-fungal sanitary silicone. Typical jobs include sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away and water escaping at the shower enclosure, on baths, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures.
Around Bradwell Waterside, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, large or small.

How we quote for bathroom resealing
For a quick quote, just ask. The main things that affect it are:
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Any working-time requirements on site
- How easy the joints are to reach
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before work begins.
Helping us quote
When you call or email, these details help:
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- Photos by email, if that is easy
- Roughly how big the job is
We quote each job on its own. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details and send pictures if you have them.
Why deal with it now?
A quick bead over the top of the old one might look better for a while, but it can’t stick to what’s underneath. Water creeps under it and mould follows, and the next reseal means two layers to cut out. Around Bradwell Waterside, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You will know the price before we begin.
Why book with us
- We agree the colour with you first
- Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over
- Anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas
- Every job guaranteed for a year

Bathroom resealing around Bradwell Waterside
Bradwell Waterside is within about 1 mile of the coast. Near the coast, holiday lets and guest houses can see bathrooms used by one guest after another, which wears sealant and grout out faster than in a quiet home. Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
If you look after a building such as St Cedd's Church of England Primary School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

How to look after the new joints
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep bottles off the sealant line
- Wipe up water along the back of the worktop
- Keep scourers and sharp tools away from the bead
- Check the joints every few months for splits or lifting
Mould needs damp, so keep the room aired. Use the fan, or open a window, while you bathe and for a while afterwards, so the bead dries out between uses.
A failed kitchen joint is easy to miss. 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.

How it works
Most of a good job is in the preparation, so that’s where we spend the time. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. All told, the work takes a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen. Somewhere as small as Bradwell Waterside, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- 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.
- Joints are degreased and any mould is treated.
- 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, usually around 24 hours.
How to prepare
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know about parking restrictions
