Bathroom resealing in Sandy Balls, done properly
Resealing is a small job that makes a big difference. Mouldy silicone makes even a new bathroom look neglected, and a clean white or clear joint fixes it quickly. Just as important, it closes the gaps water would otherwise get through. We’re often asked to deal with shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop and black mould in the silicone that won’t clean off, across kitchen worktops & upstands, basins & vanity units and wet rooms.
Somewhere as small as Sandy Balls, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Movement in older walls and floors tends to show first as cracked grout or split sealant.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Hampshire.

What the job involves on each surface
Basins & vanity units
The back of a basin gets wet every time someone washes. Old sealant there often goes black at the corners, so it’s cut out and renewed just like a bath joint.
Shower trays & enclosures
A tray that rocks will split any sealant. We check for movement before we reseal, and tell you if it needs re-bedding first.
What bathroom resealing looks like in Sandy Balls
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
Managing a site like The Burgate School and Sixth Form? Then 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.

How to look after the new joints
How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Give the silicone its full cure time
- Wipe the sealant dry after showering
- Clean with a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth
- Keep an eye on the corners, where splits start
Wipe up standing water along the worktop joint and keep hot pans off the bead. A dry joint lasts longer.
Do not wait for a refit to deal with failed sealant. Sealant is a maintenance item, like the paint on a window frame, and renewing it as soon as it fails protects everything around it.
Common problems we fix in Sandy Balls
Plenty of failed sealant has been laid over the top of older sealant. New silicone will not bond to old silicone, so it lifts, lets water in and traps mould underneath.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Lumpy, uneven sealant from a DIY attempt
- Black spots spreading through the bead
- Two layers of silicone, both failing
- Water escaping at the shower enclosure
Homes close to St Giles include some older properties, and older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

Common questions in Sandy Balls
Is there a guarantee on bathroom resealing in Sandy Balls?
All our work, in Sandy Balls and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We’re fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Is Sandy Balls in your area for bathroom resealing?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Sandy Balls is part of that. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and let us know what needs doing.
What does bathroom resealing cost?
The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Ask us for a quote and we will talk you through it.
Can I do it myself?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Which products do you use?
Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, chosen to suit the joint. We explain the product when we quote.
Can I choose the colour of the sealant?
You’re not limited to white: clear, white and colours chosen to suit the room. We can help you pick when we quote.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes, we can. More than one area can go on one quote.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Should I try it myself first?
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
Leave it or put it right?
Leaving a split or mouldy bead only stores up trouble. Once water is behind the bath, it can reach floorboards, panels and the ceiling underneath, and that’s a far bigger job than a reseal. Around Sandy Balls, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask a few questions first.

How it works
On the day, we start by going over the job with you. We protect the surfaces around the joints before work begins. Most jobs take around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom. Somewhere as small as Sandy Balls, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- 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.
- A single bead of anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied and tooled smooth.
- Finally we tidy up and explain the cure time before we leave.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Clear the area around the work
