Bathroom & kitchen resealing in Little Horsted, East Sussex
We cover Little Horsted for bath, shower, basin, wet room, worktop and sink resealing. Old sealant removed completely, joints prepared properly and every job guaranteed for a year.
- New sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting
- Water getting behind the bath panel
- Leaking joints on a shower screen
What the job involves on each surface
Baths
Most bath leaks begin along the long edge, particularly where there’s a shower over the bath. We finish it with a single, even bead of anti-fungal silicone.
Sinks & splashbacks
Next to the sink, the sealant has to cope with constant water, and a food-safe product where it’s needed. The joint is laid neatly so it’s easy to wipe.
Bathroom resealing in Little Horsted, done properly
The bead of silicone around a bath, tray or worktop is what keeps water out of the gaps. Once it cracks or goes mouldy, water starts to find its way through into walls, panels and floors. Every trace of the old sealant is taken out and replaced with anti-fungal sanitary silicone. We work on basins & vanity units, sinks & splashbacks and kitchen worktops & upstands, and the jobs we see most are a reseal done over the top of the old bead and failed sealant on the screen profile.
Somewhere as small as Little Horsted, 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.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

FAQs for Little Horsted
Can you do bathroom resealing in Little Horsted?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Little Horsted is part of that. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us what needs doing, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Uckfield station?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us about the property, and we will send you a clear quote.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. If you can, email a few photos.
Should I try DIY first?
You can, for simple jobs. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes. All our work comes with a 12-month guarantee, and we are fully insured.
Can mouldy silicone be sorted out?
Yes, by replacing the sealant. Cleaning products may lighten it, but the lasting fix is new anti-fungal silicone on a clean, treated joint. Good ventilation helps keep it away.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. We work in offices, washrooms, hotels and other commercial premises. Working times can be discussed when we quote.
Do I have to be there?
That depends on where the joints are. Inside work needs someone to give us access, while outside work can sometimes be arranged differently.
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Damage behind the tiles that needs a tiler
- Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- A tray that rocks until it’s re-bedded
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we seal
- Wet rooms

Common problems we fix in Little Horsted
Plenty of failed sealant has been laid over the top of older sealant. New silicone will not bond to old silicone, so it peels, leaks and hides mould behind it.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Leaking joints on a shower screen
- Splits where the tray meets the wall
- Black mould in the silicone that won’t clean off
- Leaks into the floor or ceiling below
In the older streets around The Parish Church of St Michael and All Angels, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

Bathroom resealing around Little Horsted
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 let a flat or house near Uckfield 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 Little Horsted Church of England Primary School, 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 we do, step by step
We bring everything the job needs with us, so there’s nothing for you to buy. Once we’ve agreed what’s being done, the area is protected and the work begins. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers. Somewhere as small as Little Horsted, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We start by protecting the area and stripping out the old bead, including the film left on the tiles.
- We clean and degrease the joint and treat any mould.
- We let it dry fully and fill the bath with water before sealing.
- We apply anti-fungal sanitary silicone in one even bead and tool it neatly.
- We tidy up and give you the cure time, normally around 24 hours.

Looking after it afterwards
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Keep bottles off the sealant line
- Squeegee the walls and tray after use
- Give the silicone its full cure time
- Keep scourers and sharp tools away from the bead
Mould needs damp, so keep the room aired. Run the extractor fan during and after a shower, so the silicone gets a chance to dry.
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. Resealing before that happens protects the worktop.
Why act early in Little Horsted
Most of the work in a good reseal happens before any silicone goes on: removing all the old sealant, degreasing the joint, treating mould and drying it properly. Without that preparation, the new bead won’t last. Older cottages and farmhouses around Little Horsted can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Leaving a failed joint usually makes the job bigger, not smaller. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.
