Monk's Gate Bathroom Resealing
Problem with your baths, showers and worktops in Monk's Gate? We cut out the old, prepare the joints and apply the right sealant.
- Gaps where the bath or tray has moved
- Shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop
- Smears of silicone across the tiles
About our bathroom resealing in Monk's Gate
Before a bath is sealed, it’s filled with water. A full bath sits slightly lower than an empty one, so the new joint isn’t pulled apart the first time it’s used. Quick jobs often leave it out, and it makes a real difference. If you are dealing with splits where the tray meets the wall and sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away, we can put it right.
For a small place like Monk's Gate, bathroom resealing is planned like any other job: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.
All our work comes with a 12-month guarantee.

Monk's Gate homes and their sealant
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 live in an older home near Church of the Good Shepherd, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as St Andrew's CofE Primary School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. For landlords with property near Horsham station, mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets.
Monk's Gate is about 3 miles south-east of Horsham, in West Sussex.

Why it’s worth doing now in Monk's Gate
Tired sealant isn’t a reason to replace a bath or shower. Replacing the joint is usually all it takes. If something else is wrong, we’ll tell you. In a small place like Monk's Gate, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
Why book with us
- 12-month guarantee on every job
- Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas

- We leave the area clean and tidy

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Tell us the address, the job and how access works and we’ll quote.
How it works
All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so there’s nothing for you to buy. Once we’ve agreed what’s being done, we protect the area and start. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers. In a small place like Monk's Gate, access is normally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We look at every joint first and check for movement or leaks.
- Every trace of the old bead is removed, including the thin smear on the tiles.
- Joints are degreased and any mould is treated.
- With the joint dry, and any bath loaded with water, a single bead of anti-fungal silicone is applied.
- The bead is tooled smooth and you’re told the cure time, usually around 24 hours.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Clear the area around the work

Aftercare tips
A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:
- Don’t let bottles sit on the bead
- Clean with a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth
- Never pick at the silicone with a blade
- Give the silicone its full cure time
Give the silicone time to cure before it gets wet, which is usually around 24 hours. After that, a quick wipe after showering helps keep it clean.
A split bead lets water through every time the bath or shower is used. Left alone, it soaks into the floor, the wall behind the tiles or the ceiling below. Early resealing closes the gap before damage is done.

Can you do bathroom resealing in Monk's Gate?

Is it messy?
Not at all. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.

Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint before resealing.
Different surfaces, different methods
Sinks & splashbacks
The edge of an inset sink is a common place for water to get under the worktop. We reseal the visible edge of the sink where it has failed.
Wet rooms
If a wet room leaks, the cause may be the tanking or the drain rather than the joints. We reseal the joints and will tell you if the water seems to be coming from somewhere else.
When something else is needed
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:
- Loose or hollow tiles, or failed tanking behind them
- A tray or bath that’s cracked through
- A tray that rocks until it’s re-bedded
If you’re not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you a straight answer.
