- Failed sealant on the screen profile
- Lumpy, uneven sealant from a DIY attempt
- Two layers of silicone, both failing
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Give the silicone its full cure time
- Move toiletries away from the joint
- Look for lifting corners and small gaps now and then
- Don’t leave water standing on kitchen joints
Mould needs damp, so keep the room aired. Run the extractor fan during and after a shower, so the bead dries out between uses.
Each shower pushes a little more water through a failed joint. Over time that water reaches floors, walls and ceilings. Early resealing closes the gap before damage is done.
Bathroom resealing in Ringmer
The bead of silicone around a bath, tray or worktop is what keeps water out of the gaps. When it splits, shrinks or turns black, water gets behind it into walls, panels and floors. Every trace of the old sealant is taken out and replaced with anti-fungal sanitary silicone. We work on baths, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units, and common reasons people get in touch are a messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal and sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away.
Even in a smaller place like Ringmer, bathrooms and kitchens see heavy daily use. Whether it’s a cottage bathroom or a newer en suite, the approach is the same: old sealant or grout cut out, joints cleaned and dried, and a fresh finish laid.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.

Can I do it myself?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
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 doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
Bathroom resealing around Ringmer
Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Ringmer Primary and Nursery School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. For landlords with property near Glynde station, fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay. Homes close to The Parish Church of St Mary the Virgin include some older properties, and bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

What we do, step by step
There’s no need to move everything out before we come, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the work takes a couple of hours for a single bath or shower in most cases. In a smaller place like Ringmer, parking is seldom the issue; lanes, gates and long drives are worth mentioning. For outside work, side access and the height of the joints help us plan.
- We protect the area and cut out all of the old sealant.
- We clean and degrease the joint and treat any mould.
- The joint is left to dry, and baths are filled with water first.
- We apply anti-fungal sanitary silicone in one even bead and tool it neatly.
- We tidy up and give you the cure time, generally around 24 hours.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in

Will there be a smell?

Different surfaces, different methods
Shower trays & enclosures
There are usually two jobs in a shower: the tray-to-wall joint and the enclosure joints. Both get soaked every time the shower runs, so both are resealed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone.
Kitchen worktops & upstands
Upstands and back edges are cut out, cleaned of grease and resealed, since cooking leaves a film that stops silicone sticking. The extra cleaning is what makes the bead last.
