Bathroom & kitchen resealing in Chapel Row, East Sussex
Our applicators work in Chapel Row on bath, shower, basin, wet room, worktop and sink resealing. Old sealant removed completely, joints prepared properly.
- Black spots spreading through the bead
- Sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away
- Damp behind the bath or under the tray
DIY versus a professional finish
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
Bathroom resealing in Chapel Row
Showers work their sealant harder than baths. Trays, enclosures, screen profiles and wet room floors all need a flexible, waterproof seal. Each gets a bead of anti-fungal sanitary silicone, finished smooth so water drains away rather than collecting. If you have new sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting and water getting behind the bath panel, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Somewhere as small as Chapel Row, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Movement in older walls and floors tends to show first as cracked grout or split sealant.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our 12-month guarantee in Chapel Row and across East Sussex.

Leave it or put it right?
The difference in a professional reseal is mostly what you don’t see: cutting out every trace of the old bead, cleaning, treating mould and letting the joint dry. Without that preparation, the new bead won’t last. In a small place like Chapel Row, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You’ll know the price before we begin.

- Next, the joint is cleaned and any mould is treated.

What else we do in Chapel Row
What affects the quote in Chapel Row

- Working hours on commercial sites
- The product the joint needs

- The size of the job
Combining jobs into one visit is generally more efficient than separate visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We will send you a clear quote for the lot.
What we need to know

- Whether it’s a home or a business
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- A few pictures by email, if you can
- The address or postcode of the job

Signs you need bathroom resealing in Chapel Row
No sealant lasts indefinitely. Daily water, heat and cleaning products take their toll over the years, so its life depends on how the room is used, cleaned and aired.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Black mould in the silicone that won’t clean off
- Sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away
- Shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop
- Damp behind the bath or under the tray
Rented homes near Pevensey Bay station change hands often, and mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets.

When something else is needed
In fairness, some problems need a different trade:
- Cracks in the tray itself rather than the joint
- Movement from a bath with loose feet or no proper support
- Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly.

Do you cover smaller places like Chapel Row?

What colours of sealant can you use?
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.
Is it OK to put new sealant on top of the old bead?
No, never. Sealing over the top looks fine for a few weeks, then lifts, because silicone does not bond to silicone. Every trace of the old bead is removed first.

Yes. We are fully insured.
How much does bathroom resealing cost in Chapel Row?

Should I try DIY first?
You can, for simple jobs. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. If it does not work out, we can redo it.
Will it make a mess?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we tidy up before we go.
