About our bathroom resealing in Little Maplestead
A shower joint gets soaked every day. Trays, enclosures, screen profiles and wet room floors all need a flexible, waterproof seal. They’re resealed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone, finished smooth so water drains away rather than collecting. We work on baths, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms, and people most often call us about a bead that has pulled away from the tiles and lumpy, uneven sealant from a DIY attempt.
For a small place like Little Maplestead, bathroom resealing is planned like any other job: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. Once we are there, the bathroom or kitchen gets the same care as anywhere else.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, large or small.

Should I try it myself first?
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.

Surface by surface
Kitchen worktops & upstands
Laminate worktops swell if water gets into the core. A continuous bead along the back keeps water out, as long as the worktop itself is firmly fixed.
Shower trays & enclosures
There are normally two jobs in a shower: the tray-to-wall joint and the enclosure joints. Both take water every day, so each is cut out and renewed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone.
Signs you need bathroom resealing in Little Maplestead
With age, silicone loses its stretch. In kitchens it often shrinks away from the back edge, leaving a thin gap where water and food collect. Hot pans and harsh cleaners don’t help.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Smears of silicone across the tiles
- Shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop
- Cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone
- Black mould in the silicone that will not clean off
Homes close to St John the Baptist Church include some older properties, and timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

Questions from Little Maplestead
Do you cover Little Maplestead for bathroom resealing?
Yes, Little Maplestead is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job.
Is Little Maplestead within the area you cover?
Yes, Little Maplestead is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. ARBOMaster is the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants, and we are part of it.
Where do you work from?
We’re based in Crawley, West Sussex, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
Do the sealants smell?
Possibly a little. It fades as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are glad to have it sorted.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course. Doing several areas at once is usually more efficient.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for 12 months. Good ventilation and gentle cleaning help it last.
Why deal with it now?
A failed joint gets more costly to put right the longer it’s left. 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 Little Maplestead, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You’ll know the price before we begin.

What bathroom resealing looks like in Little Maplestead
Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as The Ramsey Academy, 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. If you let a flat or house near Bures station, mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets.

What we do, step by step
Our applicators work methodically: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. Typically it takes two to three hours for a typical bath, depending on how much old sealant there is and we leave things clean and tidy. For a village or hamlet like Little Maplestead, 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.
- Any bath is filled with water, then we lay a bead of anti-fungal silicone in white, clear or a matching colour.
- We finish the joint, clear up and tell you how long to leave it before it gets wet.
Before we arrive
- Mention any tricky access
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
