About our bathroom resealing in Itchen Abbas
The bead of silicone around a bath, tray or worktop is what keeps water out of the gaps. When it splits, shrinks or turns black, water gets behind it. Every trace of the old sealant is taken out and replaced with anti-fungal sanitary silicone. We work on shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & upstands, and the jobs we see most are a messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal and damp behind the bath or under the tray.
Somewhere as small as Itchen Abbas, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Older walls and timber floors can move a little, and cracked grout and split sealant are often the first signs.
You’re covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

Signs you need bathroom resealing in Itchen Abbas
A bath shifts a little every time it’s filled and emptied. Acrylic in particular gives slightly under the weight of water and a person, and a tray that isn’t fully bedded can rock. That movement works at the bead until it splits or peels away.
Look out for these signs:
- A messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal
- Water getting behind the bath panel
- Cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone
- Shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop
In the older streets around Church of St John the Baptist, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Itchen Abbas
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so the work can be planned room by room. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
We work for landlords and agents as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for before the next move-in.
What happens on the day
There’s no need to move everything out before we come, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the work takes a couple of hours for a single bath or shower in most cases. In a small place like Itchen Abbas, access is usually the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We protect the area and cut out all of the old sealant.
- The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
- Once it’s dry, any bath is filled so the bead is laid with it at its heaviest.
- New anti-fungal silicone goes on in a colour to suit and is tooled to a clean finish.
- We clear away and tell you when it can get wet, usually after around 24 hours.
Before we arrive
- Mention any tricky access
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

Why act early in Itchen Abbas
Tired sealant isn’t a reason to replace a bath or shower. Replacing the joint is usually all it takes, provided the bath, tray and tiles are in good order. If we find a deeper problem, you’ll hear it from us. In a small place like Itchen Abbas, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
The cost depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before work begins.
Why us?
- Old sealant always removed completely
- Quality sealants from Arbo and Everbuild
- White, clear, grey or another colour, product permitting
- Sealant colour chosen to suit

Bathrooms and kitchens in Itchen Abbas
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 Winchester station, mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Itchen Abbas Primary School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

Aftercare tips
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Clean with a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth
- Dry the bead with a towel now and then
- Run the extractor fan during and after every shower
- Keep an eye on the corners, where splits start
Treat the new bead gently when you clean: warm soapy water and a soft cloth do the job. Avoid scouring pads and anything sharp, because a damaged bead gives mould a foothold.
Watch for the early signs: a corner lifting, a gap behind the bead, a dark line under the silicone or a damp patch on the ceiling below. Any of these means the joint needs attention.

Do you work for landlords with property near Winchester station?

Are you fully insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured, and we’ve been doing sealant work for more than 20 years.
Can you just seal over the old silicone?
No. Sealing over the top looks fine for a few weeks, then lifts, because silicone doesn’t bond to silicone. Every trace of the old bead is removed first.

We give you the cure time before we leave, and it’s generally around 24 hours. Getting it wet too early can spoil the new joint.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. Hotels, offices and other businesses use us and we’re fully insured.
