About our bathroom resealing in Slutshole
Before a bath is sealed, it’s filled with water. The weight settles the bath to its lowest point, so the bead is not stretched the first time someone gets in. It’s a small step that rushed reseals tend to skip. We are often asked to deal with a bead that has pulled away from the tiles and gaps between the worktop and the wall, on kitchen worktops & upstands, baths and shower trays & enclosures.
Around Slutshole, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right with it, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Why act early in Slutshole
A failed joint gets more costly to put right the longer it’s left. Water that gets behind a bath soaks into the floor, the panel and sometimes the ceiling below, and that’s a far bigger job than a reseal. In a small place like Slutshole, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.

Bathrooms and kitchens in Slutshole
Slutshole is within about 3 miles of the coast. Near the coast, holiday lets and guest houses can see bathrooms used by one guest after another, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
If you look after a building such as Hernhill Church of England Primary School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. For landlords with property near Selling station, mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets.

What affects the quote in Slutshole
There’s no set price list, because jobs vary so much. The quote depends on:
- Working hours on commercial sites
- Any mould that needs treating
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- Whether the work is at height
Leaving a failed joint usually makes the job bigger, not smaller, as water and mould keep getting in. If you’re unsure, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.
What to tell us for a quote
Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Try to tell us:
- Photos by email, if that is easy
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- Whether it has been sealed before
We do not publish a price list. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To arrange one, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.
When it isn’t the sealant
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what sealant cannot fix:
- Damage behind the tiles that needs a tiler
- Cracked or missing grout between tiles (that’s regrouting)
- A leaking waste, trap or valve
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will tell you honestly before you book.
What we seal
- Baths
- Sinks & splashbacks
- Kitchen worktops & upstands
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Landlords and letting agents in Slutshole can book us as well as homeowners. Resealing between tenancies is a simple way to keep a property in good order before the next move-in.
Hotels need rooms back in use, so we plan the work room by room around your bookings where we can. We have worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
What happens on the day
On the day, we start by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. We protect the surfaces around the joints before we start. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers. For a village or hamlet like Slutshole, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- Protection goes down around the bath, shower or worktop.
- Old sealant is sliced away and the residue removed.
- We treat any mould and let the joint dry properly.
- Baths are filled first, then anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied in a colour to suit.
- The joint is finished neatly and we explain when it can get wet.
How to prepare
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Keep children and pets away from the work area

Related advice
How to look after the new joints
A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:
- Open a window or run the fan so the room dries
- Dry the bead with a towel now and then
- Give the silicone its full cure time
- Stick to a soft cloth and a mild cleaner
Have a look at the joints every few months. A small split or a corner lifting is easy to spot, so if something does not look right, just call 0345 464 0079 or email us.
Small signs come before a leak: 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 we are called out for in Slutshole
Sealing over old silicone is one of the commonest mistakes we find. Fresh silicone cannot grip the old bead underneath, so it peels, leaks and hides mould behind it.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone
- Smears of silicone across the tiles
- Gaps between the worktop and the wall
- Black spots spreading through the bead
Homes close to Church of St Michael include some older properties, and older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

Do you cover Slutshole for bathroom resealing?

Do you work for landlords with property near Selling station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Where do you work from?
Our base is in Crawley, West Sussex, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Do you reseal kitchen worktops and sinks too?
Yes. The old sealant is cut out and the joint degreased, because cooking grease stops silicone sticking, then a colour-matched bead is laid.
When can I use the bath or shower again?
Around 24 hours is typical, and we confirm the time for the product used. Using it sooner can damage the bead.
Will there be a smell?
Sometimes, a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures.
Should I try DIY first?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
