The process
On the day, we start by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. We protect the surfaces around the joints before we start. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers. In a small place like Sharpthorne, access is usually the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- First, each joint is checked for movement and signs of water.
- The old silicone is cut out completely, along with the film it leaves on the tiles.
- The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
- 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 are told the cure time, generally around 24 hours.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints

Advice
Bathroom resealing in Sharpthorne
We fill the bath before sealing it. A full bath sits slightly lower than an empty one, so the bead is not stretched the first time someone gets in. It’s a small step that rushed reseals tend to skip. If you have sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away and leaks into the floor or ceiling below, we can put it right, on wet rooms, kitchen worktops & upstands and shower trays & enclosures alike.
In a village or hamlet like Sharpthorne, homes are often older cottages and farmhouses alongside a few newer houses. Movement in older walls and floors tends to show first as cracked grout or split sealant.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, large or small.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
We work for letting agents and landlords as well as householders. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for before the next move-in.
Can I do it myself?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
When something else is needed
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Failed grout lines across the wall
- A bath or tray that moves because it is not properly supported
- Cracks in the tray itself rather than the joint
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think before booking.

What happens if it’s left?
Mould removers can fade the surface of a stained bead, but where mould is inside the silicone it normally comes back. Cutting it out and resealing with anti-fungal silicone is the fix that lasts. Around Sharpthorne, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs, along with when we can work on site. Call for a quick quote and we will explain what it covers.

How to look after the new joints
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Don’t leave water standing on kitchen joints
- Use gentle cleaners on the silicone
- Move toiletries away from the joint
- Wait for the cure time we give you
Do not stand bottles along the bead, as they hold water against it. A quick squeegee after showering helps the joint dry.
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.
What affects the quote in Sharpthorne
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We look at:
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- Whether the work is at height
- Any working-time requirements on site
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference.
What we need to know
To help us quote quickly, please include:
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- Roughly how big the job is
- If someone has resealed it before
There’s no standard price list, as no two jobs are quite the same. Instead, we send you a clear quote for your job. To get started, call 0345 464 0079 or email us.
Bathrooms and kitchens in Sharpthorne
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.
Homes close to St Margaret's Church include some older properties, and walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. Schools such as West Hoathly CofE 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. Rented homes near East Grinstead station change hands often, and fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay.
