About our bathroom resealing in Cowfold
It isn’t only bathrooms. The joint between worktop and wall, the edge of the sink and the bottom of the splashback get wet every single day, and water behind a laminate worktop can make it swell. We reseal them with a kitchen-suitable silicone, matched to the worktop where it’s on show. If you’re dealing with sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away and shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop, we can put it right, on baths, kitchen worktops & upstands and wet rooms alike.
Homes around Cowfold are mostly 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.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, in Cowfold and everywhere else we cover.

What we are called out for in Cowfold
Sealant laid on a damp, dusty or greasy joint never bonds properly. Soap residue, oils and leftover silicone film all get in the way, and a joint that looked fine soon begins to come away.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Mouldy sealant that has gone black
- Splits where the tray meets the wall
- New sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting
- Cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone
In the older streets around Church of St Peter, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.
Questions to ask before you book
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
- What the quote includes, VAT included or not
- What insurance they hold
- How long to leave it before use
Aftercare tips
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Do not let bottles sit on the bead
- Squeegee the walls and tray after use
- Wipe up water along the back of the worktop
- Clean with a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth
Give the silicone time to cure before it gets wet, following the cure time we give you. Once it’s cured, wiping it down after use keeps it looking new.
There’s no need to wait for a full refurbishment. Like paintwork, sealant needs renewing from time to time, and renewing it as soon as it fails protects everything around it.
Bathroom resealing in Cowfold: local notes
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
If you look after a building such as St Peter's CofE (Aided) Primary School, washroom and kitchen sealant there needs the same care as at home, and schools and businesses are part of our work as well as homes.

Leave it or put it right?
A clean new bead makes a room look cared for, which helps when a home is being let or put on the market. A smeared, uneven DIY bead does the opposite, and it’s harder to put right later. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Cowfold, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That’s why we ask a few questions first and send you a clear quote before we start.

What happens on the day
Good joint work is mostly preparation, so that is where we spend the time. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. In total, it usually takes a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen. In a small place like Cowfold, access is normally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We protect the area and cut out all of the old sealant.
- We clean and degrease the joint and treat any mould.
- Once it’s dry, any bath is filled so the bead is laid with it at its heaviest.
- We apply anti-fungal sanitary silicone in one even bead and tool it neatly.
- Finally we tidy up and explain the cure time before we leave.
Preparing for the visit
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before

- Failed grout lines across the wall
