How we handle bathroom resealing in Fulking
The secret of a lasting bead is the preparation. The old sealant is removed to the last smear, after which the joint is degreased and any mould treated. New silicone goes on only when the joint is fully dry. We work on kitchen worktops & upstands, wet rooms and basins & vanity units, and the jobs we see most are black spots spreading through the bead and a messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal.
Being in a small place like Fulking makes no difference to the job itself: the journey and access are simply agreed in advance. Once we are there, the bathroom or kitchen gets the same care as anywhere else.
Every job is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in West Sussex.

Bathroom resealing in Fulking: local notes
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 The Church of the Holy Trinity include some older properties, and timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

Fulking questions
Is Fulking within the area you cover?
Yes, Fulking is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Portslade station?
Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes. Our 12-month guarantee covers every job, and we are fully insured.
What do you put in the joint?
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.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work.
My sealant has gone black. Can you sort it?
Yes, by replacing the sealant. Cleaning products may lighten it, but the lasting fix is new anti-fungal silicone on a clean, treated joint. Good ventilation helps keep it away.
Is white the only colour available?
You’re not limited to white: white, clear and colours to suit tiles and worktops. We can help you pick when we quote.
Will it make a mess?
Not at all. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
Signs you need bathroom resealing in Fulking
Silicone needs a clean, dry surface without any grease to stick to. Traces of soap, bath oil and old sealant stop it gripping, so a rushed job can start to lift early.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Water escaping at the shower enclosure
- Gaps between the worktop and the wall
- A joint torn by a bath that flexes
- A messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal
Letting a property close to Portslade station? Then a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for.
What your quote should include
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
- What the cure time is
- What product goes in the joint
How to look after the new joints
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Wipe up water along the back of the worktop
- Squeegee the walls and tray after use
- Stick to a soft cloth and a mild cleaner
- Keep an eye on the corners, where splits start
Have a look at the joints every few months. Small splits and lifting ends are easy to catch early, and if anything looks wrong, just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
Each shower pushes a little more water through a failed joint. Left alone, it soaks into the floor, the wall behind the tiles or the ceiling below. Resealing early stops it.

How the job changes by surface
Baths
Acrylic baths flex the most, and even steel and cast iron baths settle slightly when full. Filling the bath first allows for that movement.
Shower trays & enclosures
The vertical joint where a screen profile meets the wall is a common leak point. It’s resealed along with the tray joints, following the enclosure maker’s guidance on which side to seal.
For landlords and businesses
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
Housing providers, facilities teams and property managers book us too in Fulking and across West Sussex. Several sites can be quoted together.
What happens on the day
When we get to you, we check the joints match what you told us. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. After that, the work takes a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers. For a village or hamlet like Fulking, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- We protect the area and cut out all of the old sealant.
- We clean and degrease the joint and treat any mould.
- We let it dry fully and fill the bath with water before sealing.
- We apply anti-fungal sanitary silicone in one even bead and tool it neatly.
- We tidy up and give you the cure time, normally around 24 hours.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the work area

Advice
Honest limits
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:
- Damage behind the tiles that needs a tiler
- Water coming from the plumbing rather than the joint
- A cracked shower tray or bath (that needs repair or replacement)
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we seal
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
- Sinks & splashbacks
- Kitchen worktops & upstands
What affects the quote in Fulking
We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:
- Which sealant suits the joint
- Any mould that needs treating
- The number and length of the joints
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, because water and mould keep working on it. If you are unsure, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.
What we need to know
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- Where the property is
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
Asking for a quote is easy: let us know what needs doing and where, and roughly how big it is. A few pictures by email make the job easier to understand, and we will take it from there.
