About our bathroom resealing in Meads
A fresh bead of silicone changes how a bathroom looks more than most people expect. Black, patchy sealant makes clean tiles look tired, and a neat new joint puts that right in a short visit. It also seals the gaps that let water behind the bath. If you’re dealing with mouldy sealant that has gone black and a messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal, we can help, whatever the surface.
Even in a smaller place like Meads, bathrooms and kitchens see heavy daily use. Older or newer, every room gets the same approach: all the old material out, the joint cleaned and dried, then new sealant or grout.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after we’ve gone.

Bathrooms and kitchens in Meads
Meads is within about 1 mile of the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
Rented homes near Eastbourne station change hands often, and a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for.
Meads is about 2 miles south of Eastbourne, in East Sussex. Meads gets the same service as everywhere we cover: old sealant removed completely, careful preparation and a one-year guarantee. Meads is one of 289 towns and villages in East Sussex where we work for bathroom resealing. We also work in Brighton, about 18 miles from Meads.
Our applicators cover all of the BN20 and BN21 postcode area for bathroom resealing. Whether your property is on Link Road, Mount Road and Cliff Road or a nearby road, we can help. If you’re just outside Meads, we cover Holywell (1 mile south-east), Old Town (1 mile north), Upperton (1 mile north), Eastbourne (2 miles north) and Ratton Village (3 miles north). Larger places within reach include Hastings (15 miles north-east), Bexhill-on-Sea (11 miles north-east), Seaford (7 miles west), Lewes (14 miles north-west), Hailsham (7 miles north) and St Leonards (14 miles north-east).
What’s near Meads
In Meads, that means homes and buildings near Gildrege Park, Gildredge House and The Ship Inn and the streets around them. The nearest railway station is Eastbourne station, about 1.1 miles north-east of the centre. A little further out are Eastbourne District General Hospital (2.1 miles north) and Rnli Eastbourne Lifeboat Museum (0.9 miles north-east). For a walk, there’s Combe Hill.
When to call us in Meads
The wrong product fails fast. Acrylic caulk and general-purpose sealants aren’t designed for a joint that is wet every day, so they crack, discolour or grow mould quickly. Wet areas call for a sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive.
People normally contact us when they notice one of these:
- Lumpy, uneven sealant from a DIY attempt
- Gaps where the bath or tray has moved
- Water getting behind the bath panel
- Water escaping at the shower enclosure
In the older streets around St John the Evangelist, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.
Questions to ask before booking
- What insurance they hold
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
- What happens if the job turns out different
Looking after it afterwards
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Keep the fan on for a while after bathing
- Move toiletries away from the joint
- Keep scourers and sharp tools away from the bead
- Use gentle cleaners on the silicone
Check the sealant now and then. A small split or a corner lifting is easy to spot, and if anything looks wrong, just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
Watch for the early signs: lifting ends, gaps, dark shadows under the bead or a stain downstairs. Any of these means the joint needs attention.
Why it’s worth doing now in Meads
A failed joint gets more costly to put right the longer it’s left. Water that gets behind a bath soaks into the floor, the panel and sometimes the ceiling below, and that’s a far bigger job than a reseal. Around Meads, water from a failed joint in an older home can soak into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the sealant itself.
Combining jobs into one visit is usually more efficient than separate visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We will give you a clear price for the lot.

Common questions in Meads
Do you work for landlords with property near Eastbourne station?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us about the property, and we will send you a clear quote.
Do you take on hotel work around Meads?
Yes, hospitality work, including hotels, is part of what we do. Work can be planned room by room, and out-of-hours working can be arranged.
Is it messy?
No. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.
Can I choose the colour of the sealant?
White, clear and a range of colours are available. Where the joint is on show, we match it to the surface.
Do I have to be there?
It depends on the job. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in.
Where do you work from?
Our base is in Crawley, West Sussex, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.
How long will the resealing take?
One bath or shower is around two hours’ work, including cutting out the old sealant. A full bathroom and kitchen can take most of a day.
Can mouldy silicone be sorted out?
Yes, we can. We strip the bead, treat the joint and lay new anti-fungal silicone.
What we do, step by step
At the end, we look at the finished work together and explain the cure time. The work normally takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom, depending on the size of the job. In a smaller place like Meads, 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.
- The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
- The joint is left to dry, and baths are filled with water first.
- New anti-fungal silicone goes on in a colour to suit and is tooled to a clean finish.
- Finally we tidy up and explain the cure time before we leave.
Before we arrive
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
