Bathroom & kitchen resealing in Hurst Green, East Sussex
Baths, showers and worktops in Hurst Green need attention? We remove the old material, prepare the joints and seal them properly.
- A joint torn by a bath that flexes
- Black spots spreading through the bead
- Damp behind the bath or under the tray
Why act early in Hurst Green
Leaving a split or mouldy bead only stores up trouble. Once water is behind the bath, it can reach floorboards, panels and the ceiling underneath, turning a small job into a building repair. In a small place like Hurst Green, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

Bathroom resealing for homes and businesses in Hurst Green
A reseal only lasts if the joint is properly prepared. The old sealant is removed to the last smear, then the joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould. Only once it’s dry does the new bead go on. We work on basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and sinks & splashbacks, and common reasons people get in touch are a bead that has pulled away from the tiles and failed sealant on the screen profile.
Around Hurst Green, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. The work is the same as anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

Your questions about bathroom resealing in Hurst Green
Do you cover smaller places like Hurst Green?
Yes, Hurst Green is covered. 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.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Etchingham station?
Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as homeowners, and several properties can go on one quote. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.
Do you remove the old sealant?

Do you do commercial work?
Yes. We have worked for hotels, offices and other businesses, and we are fully insured.
Where do you work from?
We work from Crawley. We cover Hurst Green and the rest of East Sussex, along with the rest of our area.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We’re ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.
Can I do it myself?
It depends on the job. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
How long does a bath or shower reseal take?
A single bath or shower takes about a couple of hours, old sealant removal included. A whole bathroom plus the kitchen may take most of the day.
When to call us in Hurst Green
Not every tube in the shop is meant for a shower. Acrylic caulk and general-purpose sealants aren’t designed for a joint that is wet every day, so they crack, discolour or grow mould quickly. A bathroom joint needs anti-fungal sanitary silicone.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Gaps where the bath or tray has moved
- Leaks into the floor or ceiling below
- A reseal done over the top of the old bead
- Cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone
In the older streets around Holy Trinity, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.
Before booking anyone
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether they’re fully insured
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- What happens if the job turns out different
Should I try it myself first?
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
Looking after it afterwards
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Do not let bottles sit on the bead
- Open a window or run the fan so the room dries
- Stick to a soft cloth and a mild cleaner
- Avoid abrasive pads on the sealant
Mould needs damp, so keep the room aired. Use the fan, or open a window, while you bathe and for a while afterwards, so the bead dries out between uses.
A failed kitchen joint is easy to miss. Splashes run behind the back edge and soak into the worktop, and the board underneath can swell. A reseal in time can save the worktop.

Hurst Green homes and their sealant
Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
If you let a flat or house near Etchingham station, mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets. If you look after a building such as Hurst Green Church of England Primary School and Nursery, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

What we do, step by step

- First, each joint is checked for movement and signs of water.
- Every trace of the old bead is removed, including the thin smear on the tiles.
- The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
- When the joint is dry, and a bath has been filled with water, the new silicone goes on.
- We tool the bead to a neat finish and give you the cure time, usually around 24 hours.
Before we arrive
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
