How we handle bathroom resealing in Horsebridge
Showers work their sealant harder than baths. Tray edges, screen profiles and wet room joints all rely on silicone to stay watertight. They’re resealed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone, finished smooth so water drains away rather than collecting. Typical jobs include water getting behind the kitchen upstand and a messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal, on shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & upstands.
Being in a small place like Horsebridge makes no difference to the job itself: the journey and access are simply agreed in advance. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.

When to call us in Horsebridge
The wrong product fails fast. Decorators’ caulk and all-purpose sealants are not made for constant wetting, so they stain, crack or go mouldy before long. A bathroom joint needs anti-fungal sanitary silicone.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- Water escaping at the shower enclosure
- Leaks into the floor or ceiling below
- Black mould in the silicone that won’t clean off
- Gaps between the worktop and the wall
In the older streets around Church of St James, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.
Questions to ask before you book
- How the colour is chosen
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- Is VAT in the price?
- When the joint can take water or movement
Bathroom resealing in Horsebridge: local notes
Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
For landlords with property near Mottisfont & Dunbridge station, a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as King's Somborne Church of England Primary School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

Aftercare tips
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Wipe up water along the back of the worktop
- Clean with a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth
- Let new sealant cure fully before it gets wet
- Dry the bead with a towel now and then
Check the sealant now and then. Small splits and lifting ends are easy to catch early, so if something does not look right, just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
A failed kitchen joint is easy to miss. Water gets behind the upstand and into the edge of a laminate worktop, and the board underneath can swell. Resealing before that happens protects the worktop.

The process
Good joint work is mostly preparation, and we don’t rush it. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. All told, the work takes a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers. Somewhere like Horsebridge needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- First, each joint is checked for movement and signs of water.
- The old silicone is cut out completely, along with the film it leaves 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.
- The bead is tooled smooth and you’re told the cure time, generally around 24 hours.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any tricky access
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

Should I try it myself first?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
What happens if it’s left?
Running new silicone over the old joint can look tidy for a few weeks, but it won’t bond. Water creeps under it and mould follows, so the next person has twice as much to remove. Around Horsebridge, 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 look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.

What we can’t put right
Sealant is not the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant will not put right:
- Tiles that have come away from the wall
- Cracks in the tray itself rather than the joint
- Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
If you’re not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we seal
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
