What happens on the day
All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so there’s nothing for you to buy. Once we’ve agreed what’s being done, we protect the area and start. It normally takes two to three hours for a typical bath, depending on how much old sealant there is. For a village or hamlet like Icklesham, the journey is planned in advance: 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.
- We protect the area and cut out all of the old sealant.
- Next, the joint is cleaned and any mould is treated.
- We let it dry fully and fill the bath with water before sealing.
- New anti-fungal silicone goes on in a colour to suit and is tooled to a clean finish.
- Finally we tidy up and explain the cure time before we leave.
Preparing for the visit
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

About our bathroom resealing in Icklesham
Sealant is the soft line between a bath, shower or worktop and the wall. Once it cracks or goes mouldy, water starts to find its way through into walls, panels and floors. Our team cut the old bead out completely and lay a new one in anti-fungal sanitary silicone. If you have gaps where the bath or tray has moved and leaks into the floor or ceiling below, we can put it right.
Somewhere as small as Icklesham, 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.
A 12-month guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Keeping the joints in good condition
A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:
- Squeegee the walls and tray after use
- Move toiletries away from the joint
- Let new sealant cure fully before it gets wet
- Run the extractor fan during and after every shower
Clean the silicone with care: a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth is enough. Scourers and blades can nick the surface, because a damaged bead gives mould a foothold.
There’s no need to wait for a full refurbishment. Sealant is a maintenance item, like the paint on a window frame, and renewing it as soon as it fails protects everything around it.

Your questions about bathroom resealing in Icklesham
Do you cover Icklesham for bathroom resealing?
Yes, Icklesham is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and let us know what needs doing.
Will you come out to Icklesham?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help too.
Can mouldy silicone be sorted out?
Yes, we replace the mouldy bead. Cleaning products may lighten it, but the lasting fix is new anti-fungal silicone on a clean, treated joint. Airing the room well helps stop it returning.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
How long will the resealing take?
It takes half a day or less for one room, longer when the kitchen is included. We’ll confirm how long your job needs when we quote.
Will there be a smell?
Possibly a little. It fades as the sealant cures.
How long before the new sealant can get wet?
Silicone is touch-dry quite quickly, but it takes longer to cure. Leave it around 24 hours before it gets wet, or as long as we advise for that product.
What sealant work cannot fix
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- Water coming from the plumbing rather than the joint
- A cracked shower tray or bath (that needs repair or replacement)
- A tray that rocks until it’s re-bedded
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll tell you honestly.
Where we work in Icklesham
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & upstands
- Sinks & splashbacks
Different surfaces, different methods
Basins & vanity units
Basins take less water than showers, but the joint behind them is splashed every day. Corners behind basins are where mould tends to start, and we treat it exactly as we would a bath.
Sinks & splashbacks
Next to the sink, the sealant has to cope with constant water, including a food-safe sealant where that’s needed. The bead is finished smooth so it wipes clean.
Leave it or put it right?
Mould removers can fade the surface of a stained bead, but where mould is inside the silicone it normally comes back. The lasting answer is to remove the bead and start again. Around Icklesham, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Leaving a failed joint usually makes the job bigger, not smaller, because water and mould keep working on it. If you’re unsure, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.
Icklesham homes and their sealant
Icklesham is within about 3 miles of the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, which wears sealant and grout out faster than in a quiet home. 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.
If you look after a building such as Icklesham Church of England Primary School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. Homes close to The Parish Church of St Nicholas include some older properties, and older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. If you let a flat or house near Winchelsea station, a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for.
