What bathroom resealing looks like in Silverhill
Silverhill is within about 2 miles of 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. Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
Schools such as Christ Church CofE Primary and Nursery Academy are buildings too, and we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. Letting a property close to St Leonards Warrior Square station? Then fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay.

Surface by surface
Sinks & splashbacks
Splashbacks in glass, tile or acrylic meet the worktop in a long joint. We renew it in clear, white or a matched colour.
Basins & vanity units
Basin joints are short and close to eye level: the bead is right in front of you, so it’s tooled cleanly and evenly, in white, clear or a colour to suit.
How it works
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Show us the job and we will take it from there. The job generally takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom. Parking around Silverhill is usually easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. If the job is outside, tell us about side access and how high the joints are.
- 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.
- Joints are degreased and any mould is treated.
- 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’re told the cure time, usually around 24 hours.
Preparing for the visit
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints

What else we do in Silverhill
Common problems we fix in Silverhill
Black mould is behind a lot of resealing. Bathrooms without good ventilation keep the silicone damp for hours, and mould that has grown into the silicone generally won’t clean off.
The most common problems we see are:
- Gaps where the bath or tray has moved
- Water getting behind the kitchen upstand
- Smears of silicone across the tiles
- Black mould in the silicone that will not clean off
If you live in an older home near St Matthew's Church, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.
Questions to ask before booking
- What the quote includes, VAT included or not
- Are they insured?
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
Why deal with it now?
Tired sealant isn’t a reason to replace a bath or shower. A new bead often brings the whole room back. If something else is wrong, we’ll tell you. In an older home around Silverhill, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the sealant itself.
The cost depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before any work starts.
Why Silverhill clients choose us
- Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas
- A sealant colour to suit the surroundings
- Over 20 years’ experience
- A 12-month guarantee on all work

DIY sealant or a professional job?
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.
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
When something else is needed
In fairness, there are a few things sealant won’t fix:
- Cracks in the tray itself rather than the joint
- Water getting in through the grout rather than the sealant
- Loose or hollow tiles, or failed tanking behind them
If you are not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you a straight answer.
What we seal
- Basins & vanity units

Silverhill: your questions answered
Do you work for hotels and guest houses in Silverhill?
Yes, we work for hotels as well as homes and businesses. Rooms can be done a few at a time, so the building stays open.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near St Leonards Warrior Square station?
Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners, and several properties can go on one quote. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details for a clear quote.
What does bathroom resealing cost?
We don’t publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. We agree the price before any work begins.
Is white the only colour available?
We can use white, clear or a colour to suit. On a worktop we colour-match where the joint shows.
What do you put in the joint?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we will tell you what we’re using.
How long does the new silicone need before I use the shower?
The surface skins over fairly quickly, but the bead needs longer to cure right through. Leave it around 24 hours before it gets wet, or as long as we advise for that product.
My sealant has gone black. Can you sort it?
Yes. We strip the bead, treat the joint and lay new anti-fungal silicone.
Is it worth trying 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.
Landlord and commercial work in Silverhill
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements.
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
