Bathroom resealing for Old Shoreham homes and businesses

How we handle bathroom resealing in Old Shoreham

Homes in Old Shoreham have the same weak spots as anywhere else: bath edges, tray joints, basin backs and kitchen upstands. Each one is stripped, cleaned and dried before new silicone goes in. We work on wet rooms, baths and basins & vanity units, and people most often call us about water getting behind the kitchen upstand and damp behind the bath or under the tray.

Around Old Shoreham, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after we have gone.

What we do, step by step

The work is kept neat and contained to the joints we are treating, so you can carry on as normal. Expect the work to take a couple of hours for a single bath or shower. For a village or hamlet like Old Shoreham, 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.

  1. We protect the area and cut out all of the old sealant, including the film left on the tiles.
  2. We clean and degrease the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We let it dry fully and fill the bath with water before sealing.
  4. We apply anti-fungal sanitary silicone in one even bead and tool it neatly.
  5. We tidy up and give you the cure time, generally around 24 hours.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
  • Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
  • Clear items away from the joints we are working on

Do you need bathroom resealing in Old Shoreham?

Silicone needs a clean, dry surface without any grease to stick to. Soap residue, oils and leftover silicone film all get in the way, and a joint that looked fine soon begins to come away.

Any of these means the joints need attention:

  • Mouldy sealant that has gone black
  • A messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal
  • New sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting
  • Gaps where the bath or tray has moved

If you live in an older home near St Nicolas' Church, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether they’re fully insured
  • The length of the guarantee
  • Which colour the sealant will be
  • What happens if the job turns out different

Choosing a sealant specialist

How the job changes by surface

Kitchen worktops & upstands

Water behind a laminate worktop can make the edge swell. A continuous bead along the back keeps water out.

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.

What we cannot put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:

  • A leaking waste, trap or valve
  • A cracked shower tray or bath (that needs repair or replacement)
  • Tiles that have come away from the wall

If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Old Shoreham homes and their sealant

Old Shoreham is close to the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, which wears sealant and grout out faster than in a quiet home. 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.

For landlords with property near Shoreham-By-Sea station, mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets. Schools such as Swiss Gardens Primary School are buildings too, and 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.

Why deal with it now?

Mould removers can fade the surface of a stained bead, but where mould is inside the silicone it usually comes back. The lasting answer is to remove the bead and start again. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Old Shoreham, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.

Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part, and we will explain the quote if you ask.

Why book with us

  • You choose the colour before work begins
  • 4.9 on Google from 180+ five-star reviews
  • Full insurance on every job
  • Old sealant always removed completely

Take a look at our cost guide and what customers say.

Should I try it myself first?

Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.

If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.

Quotes for bathroom resealing in Old Shoreham

You will get a clear quote before work begins. It’s based on:

  • The size of the job
  • When we can work, for business premises
  • How easy the joints are to reach
  • Whether there’s mould to deal with

Some things make a job bigger or smaller: 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.

What to tell us for a quote

To make quoting easier, let us know:

  • Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
  • What’s wrong with the joints now
  • Photos by email, if that is easy
  • Where the job is, and your postcode

Getting a quote is simple: let us know the job and the location, and roughly how big it is. A few photos by email make the job easier to understand, and we will take it from there.
