How we handle bathroom resealing in Shipton Green

Sealant is the soft line between a bath, shower or worktop and the wall. Once it cracks or goes mouldy, water starts to find its way through into walls, panels and floors. Our team cut the old bead out completely and lay a new one in anti-fungal sanitary silicone. We work on shower trays & enclosures, baths and sinks & splashbacks, and common reasons people get in touch are leaks into the floor or ceiling below and a bead that has pulled away from the tiles.

For a small place like Shipton Green, bathroom resealing is planned like any other job: the journey and access are simply agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the bathroom or kitchen gets the same care as anywhere else.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same 12-month guarantee in Shipton Green and across West Sussex.

Aftercare tips

After the cure time, these simple habits help:

  • Dry worktop joints after washing up
  • Avoid abrasive pads on the sealant
  • Dry the bead with a towel now and then
  • Move toiletries away from the joint

In a kitchen, do not let water sit along the back of the worktop and keep hot pans away from the silicone. A dry joint lasts longer.

Watch for the early signs: a corner lifting, a gap behind the bead, a dark line under the silicone or a damp patch on the ceiling below. If you spot one, it’s time to reseal.

What the job involves on each surface

Wet rooms

If a wet room leaks, the cause may be the tanking or the drain rather than the joints. We reseal the joints and will tell you if the water seems to be coming from somewhere else.

Shower trays & enclosures

Water often gets past the wall profile of a shower enclosure. It’s resealed along with the tray joints, sealing the side the enclosure’s instructions call for.

Honest limits

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • Tiles that have come away from the wall
  • Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Movement from a bath with loose feet or no proper support

Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will tell you honestly.

How we quote for bathroom resealing

We do not publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. The quote depends on:

  • How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
  • Any mould that needs treating
  • The size of the job
  • The type of sealant required

What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we ask about the job first and give you a clear quote before we start.

Helping us quote

What to tell us when you ask for a quote:

  • How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
  • The address or postcode of the job
  • Pictures of the joints, sent by email
  • Whether it has been sealed before

We do not publish a price list, as no two jobs are quite the same. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To arrange one, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

What happens on the day

We bring everything the job needs with us, so there’s nothing for you to buy. After a quick look at the joints together, the area is protected and the work begins. It normally takes a couple of hours for a single bath or shower. For a village or hamlet like Shipton Green, 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 cover the area around the joints we are working on.
  2. We cut away the old sealant and clean off what’s left.
  3. Mould is treated, then the joint is left to dry thoroughly.
  4. Any bath is filled with water, then we lay a bead of anti-fungal silicone in white, clear or a matching colour.
  5. We finish the joint, clear up and tell you how long to leave it before it gets wet.

Before we arrive

  • Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
  • Mention any tricky access
  • Let us know about parking restrictions

Bathrooms and kitchens in Shipton Green

Shipton Green 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.

Managing a site like Birdham CE Primary School? 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. Rented homes near Bosham station change hands often, and a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for. If you live in an older home near St Nicholas' Church, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

Should I try it myself first?

Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out 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.
