Bath, shower, basin, wet room, worktop and sink resealing in Lyndhurst, with a one-year guarantee on every job. Ask us for a quote.
- Water getting behind the kitchen upstand
- Water escaping at the shower enclosure
- A messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal
Why deal with it now?
Running new silicone over the old joint can look tidy for a few weeks, but it can’t stick to what’s underneath. Water creeps under it and mould follows, so the next person has twice as much to remove. In an older home around Lyndhurst, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the sealant itself.
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference.

Bathroom resealing in Lyndhurst, done properly
Homes in Lyndhurst have the same weak spots as anywhere else: bath edges, tray joints, basin backs and kitchen upstands. Every joint is cut out, cleaned and left dry before it’s resealed. If you have a reseal done over the top of the old bead and shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop, we can help.
In a smaller place like Lyndhurst, homes are mostly houses and bungalows rather than flats, some older and some much newer. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do in a big town.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

Common problems we fix in Lyndhurst
With age, silicone loses its stretch. In kitchens it often shrinks away from the back edge, opening a hairline gap that lets water and crumbs in. Heat from the hob and strong sprays speed it along.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop
- Leaking joints on a shower screen
- Cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone
- New sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of Our Lady and St Edward, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

Bathroom resealing in Lyndhurst: local notes
There are hotels and other places to stay in and around Lyndhurst. Hotel bathrooms are part of our work as well as homes, and can be done room by room. Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale 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 Ashurst New Forest station, fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay. If you look after a building such as St Michael and All Angels CofE Infant School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

How to look after the new joints
How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Keep bottles off the sealant line
- Never pick at the silicone with a blade
- Use gentle cleaners on the silicone
- Wipe the sealant dry after showering
Do not stand bottles along the bead, because they trap water against the silicone. Squeegeeing the walls and tray after use helps the joint dry.
Mould that starts as a few spots spreads through the bead. Once it’s deep in the silicone, cleaning normally will not remove it, and nearby grout often goes the same way. Replacing the sealant early keeps the job small.
Questions from Lyndhurst
Do you work for landlords with property near Ashurst New Forest station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.
Will you come out to Lyndhurst?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint.
Can new silicone go straight over the old?
No. Fresh silicone cannot stick to the old bead, so it peels away and hides mould and water. We always take the old sealant out completely.
Do you reseal kitchen worktops and sinks too?
Yes, often alongside a bathroom. Where it’s needed by the sink, we use a food-safe sealant.
What do you put in the joint?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference.
My sealant has gone black. Can you sort it?
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.
Does someone need to be in?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
How it works
At the end, we look at the finished work together and explain the cure time. The visit itself usually takes a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers, depending on the amount of work. In a smaller place like Lyndhurst, parking is seldom the issue; lanes, gates and long drives are worth mentioning. If the job is outside, tell us about side access and how high the joints are.
- First the area is protected and every bit of old sealant removed, including the film left on the tiles.
- The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
- 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.
- We clear away and tell you when it can get wet, normally after around 24 hours.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules

- Cracks in the tray itself rather than the joint
- Damage behind the tiles that needs a tiler
If you’re not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you a straight answer.

DIY versus a professional finish
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
