Bathroom resealing in Paulsgrove
The bead of silicone around a bath, tray or worktop is what keeps water out of the gaps. Once it cracks or goes mouldy, water starts to find its way through. Every trace of the old sealant is taken out and replaced with anti-fungal sanitary silicone. We work on basins & vanity units, kitchen worktops & upstands and sinks & splashbacks, and people most often call us about damp behind the bath or under the tray and failed sealant on the screen profile.
Around Paulsgrove, you will mostly find houses and bungalows, from older cottages to newer builds. Bathrooms and kitchens here get the same daily wear as anywhere, and the sealant and grout show it first.
Every job comes with a 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in Portsmouth.

Common questions in Paulsgrove
Do you work for landlords with property near Cosham station?
Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as householders. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Do you cover Paulsgrove for bathroom resealing?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Paulsgrove is part of that. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us what needs doing.
Can I do it myself?
It depends on the job. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
How long will the resealing take?
That depends on the number of joints and the state of the old sealant. For most single baths or showers, allow a couple of hours.
Will you leave a mess?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we tidy up before we go.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Only a few details: the address or postcode, what’s wrong and any access issues. Then phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, we can. More than one area can go on one quote.
What happens on the day
Most of a good job is in the preparation, so that’s where we spend the time. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. All told, the work takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom. For a job in Paulsgrove, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- We look at every joint first and check for movement or leaks.
- The old silicone is cut out completely, along with the film it leaves on the tiles.
- Joints are degreased and any mould is treated.
- When the joint is dry, and a bath has been filled with water, the new silicone goes on.
- We tool the bead to a neat finish and give you the cure time, normally around 24 hours.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before

Related advice
Keeping the joints in good condition
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Never pick at the silicone with a blade
- Stick to a soft cloth and a mild cleaner
- Keep the fan on for a while after bathing
- Wait for the cure time we give you
Treat the new bead gently when you clean: warm soapy water and a soft cloth do the job. Avoid scouring pads and anything sharp, because a damaged bead gives mould a foothold.
Mould that starts as a few spots spreads through the bead. When it has grown right through, it rarely cleans out, and nearby grout often goes the same way. Catching it early keeps it a simple reseal.
How the job changes by surface
Wet rooms
If a wet room leaks, the cause may be the tanking or the drain rather than the joints. We check the joints and say so if the fault looks to be elsewhere.
Basins & vanity units
Basin joints are short and close to eye level: so we keep the line tidy and even, in white, clear or a colour to suit.
Paulsgrove homes and their sealant
Paulsgrove is close to the coast. Near the coast, holiday lets and guest houses can see bathrooms used by one guest after another, which wears sealant and grout out faster than in a quiet home. Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Beacon View Primary Academy, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. If you live in an older home near St Michael and All Angels, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.
Paulsgrove is about 3 miles north of Portsmouth, in Portsmouth. Paulsgrove gets the same service as everywhere we cover: old sealant removed completely, careful preparation and a one-year guarantee. Paulsgrove is one of 19 places in Portsmouth where we work for bathroom resealing.
We cover every part of the PO6 postcode area for bathroom resealing. Local streets include Bourne Road, Ludlow Road and Farmlea Road, and we cover them all. Paulsgrove sits on or near the M27 and A27, which makes travel easy.

What’s near Paulsgrove
Typical jobs here are in homes near Alexandra Park, The Sir Alec Rose pub and Castle View Academy, among other places. The nearest railway station is Cosham station, about 1.2 miles south-east. Other landmarks nearby include Queen Alexandra Hospital (1.1 miles east) and World War I Remembrance Centre (2.2 miles south-east). Not far away are Southmoor Nature Reserve and Portsdown Hill.
Why deal with it now?
Dealing with sealant early is a short job: the work takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom. Left until water gets through, the job can grow to lifting panels, drying out and decorating. Homes in smaller places like Paulsgrove can face more weather, and failed outside joints let damp into walls. Inside, a split seal lets water into floors and panels just as it would anywhere.
The cost depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. We give a clear quote before work begins, so you know where you stand.

Can I do it myself?
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
When to call us in Paulsgrove
Baths and trays move. Acrylic in particular gives slightly under the weight of water and a person, while a poorly supported tray can shift underfoot. That movement works at the bead until it splits or peels away.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- A reseal done over the top of the old bead
- Failed sealant on the screen profile
- Lumpy, uneven sealant from a DIY attempt
- Water getting behind the kitchen upstand
Letting a property close to Cosham station? Then fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay.
