Different surfaces, different methods
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 will say so.
Kitchen worktops & upstands
Upstands and back edges are cut out, cleaned of grease and resealed, because cooking grease stops sealant bonding. The extra cleaning is what makes the bead last.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Aftercare is simple:
- Move toiletries away from the joint
- Wait for the cure time we give you
- Run the extractor fan during and after every shower
- Stick to a soft cloth and a mild cleaner
Give the silicone time to cure before it gets wet, which is usually around 24 hours. Once it’s cured, wiping it down after use keeps it looking new.
There’s no need to wait for a full refurbishment. Sealant is a maintenance item, like the paint on a window frame, and renewing it as soon as it fails protects everything around it.
What we do, step by step
At the end, we look at the finished work together. The work normally takes half a day or less for one room, longer when the kitchen is included, depending on how much there is to do. In a small place like Chailey, access is usually the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We start by protecting the area and stripping out the old bead, including the film left on the tiles.
- The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
- Once it’s dry, any bath is filled so the bead is laid with it at its heaviest.
- A single bead of anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied and tooled smooth.
- We clear away and tell you when it can get wet, usually after around 24 hours.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any tricky access
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

Your questions about bathroom resealing in Chailey
Is Chailey within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
I let a flat near Plumpton station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. We work in offices, washrooms, hotels and other commercial premises. We can talk about working times when we quote.
Does the resealing come with a guarantee?
Yes. All our work comes with a 12-month guarantee.
Is there any odour?
Sometimes, a little. It fades as the sealant cures.
Do you reseal kitchen worktops and sinks too?
Yes. Worktops, sinks and splashbacks are all part of the job, in a kitchen-suitable sealant, matched to the worktop where it’s on show.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, and it’s something we never do.
My sealant has gone black. Can you sort it?
Yes, we can. The old sealant comes out, the mould is treated, and we reseal with anti-fungal sanitary silicone.
Bathroom resealing around Chailey
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
Rented homes near Plumpton station change hands often, and mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets. Managing a site like Chailey St Peter's Church of England Primary School? Then its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. In the older streets around The Parish Church of St Peter, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

Why it’s worth doing now in Chailey
Leaving a split or mouldy bead only stores up trouble. 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. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Chailey, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Doing several joints on one visit generally makes better use of the time than several visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We’ll send you a clear quote for the lot.
