About our bathroom resealing in Iford
We fill the bath before sealing it. A full bath sits slightly lower than an empty one, so the new joint is not pulled apart the first time it’s used. Quick jobs often leave it out, and it makes a real difference. We work on baths, shower trays & enclosures and sinks & splashbacks, and the jobs we see most are new sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting and lumpy, uneven sealant from a DIY attempt.
Homes around Iford are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.
You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything is not right with it, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

What we do, step by step
Our applicators work methodically: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. For most jobs that takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom and we leave things clean and tidy. For a village or hamlet like Iford, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- Protection goes down around the bath, shower or worktop.
- Old sealant is sliced away and the residue removed.
- Mould is treated, then the joint is left to dry thoroughly.
- Baths are filled first, then anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied in a colour to suit.
- We finish the joint, clear up and tell you how long to leave it before it gets wet.
Before we arrive
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

Advice
How the job changes by surface
Basins & vanity units
The back of a basin gets wet every time someone washes. Corners behind basins are where mould tends to start, and we treat it exactly as we would a bath.
Sinks & splashbacks
The edge of an inset sink is a common place for water to get under the worktop. We reseal the visible edge of the sink where it has failed.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Letting agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the address, the job and how access works.
We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders. Sealant work between tenants is a simple way to keep a property in good order.
What affects the cost of bathroom resealing
There’s no set price list, because jobs vary so much. The quote depends on:
- The number of rooms or windows
- When we can work, for business premises
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- The number and length of the joints
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That is why we ask about the job first.
Helping us quote
Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Try to tell us:
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- Where the job is, and your postcode
Every job is quoted individually, so the first step is telling us about yours. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details and send pictures if you have them.
When to call us in Iford
The wrong product fails fast. Decorators’ caulk and all-purpose sealants are not made for constant wetting, so they crack, discolour or grow mould quickly. Wet areas call for a sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive.
People generally contact us after spotting one of these:
- Leaking joints on a shower screen
- Leaks into the floor or ceiling below
- Smears of silicone across the tiles
- Black mould in the silicone that won’t clean off
Schools such as Iford and Kingston Church of England Primary School are buildings too, and 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.
What to look for in a quote
- What the quote includes, VAT included or not
- How the colour is chosen
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- How much experience the applicator has
Aftercare tips
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Wipe the sealant dry after showering
- Wipe up water along the back of the worktop
- Clean with a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth
- Run the extractor fan during and after every shower
Good ventilation does more than any cleaner. Run the extractor fan during and after a shower, so the bead dries out between uses.
Do not wait for a refit to deal with failed sealant. Sealant is a maintenance item, like the paint on a window frame, and renewing it as soon as it fails protects everything around it.
Honest limits
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what new sealant will not do:
- A bath or tray that moves because it isn’t properly supported
- Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- A tray or bath that is cracked through
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think before booking.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Bathroom resealing around Iford
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.
For landlords with property near Lewes station, mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets. For an older house near a landmark such as St Pancras Church (Kingston near Lewes), walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.
