Landlord and commercial work in Southbourne
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.
Landlords and agents in Southbourne can book us as well as householders. Resealing between tenancies is a simple way to keep a property in good order.
How we handle bathroom resealing in Southbourne
With over 20 years in the trade, we reseal baths, showers and kitchens in homes across Southbourne. We are fully insured ARBOMaster approved applicators, and the work comes with a 12-month guarantee. We work on wet rooms, baths and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people get in touch are new sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting and cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone.
Homes around Southbourne range from older cottages to more recent houses. Older homes can move a little with the seasons, which is hard on tired sealant and rigid grout.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same 12-month guarantee.

How we quote for bathroom resealing
We do not publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. The quote depends on:
- Any working-time requirements on site
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- Whether the work is at height
We do not show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll talk you through it.
What to tell us for a quote
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- The problem you’ve noticed
- How we’d reach the joints
- If someone has resealed it before
For a quote, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the location and a short description of the problem. We’ll send you a clear quote before any work starts.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
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.
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Why deal with it now?
Fresh sealant smartens a bathroom or kitchen with very little disruption, which helps when a home is being let or put on the market. A smeared, uneven DIY bead does the opposite, and it’s harder to put right later. In a smaller place like Southbourne, wherever a wall is exposed, a failed outside joint is a real source of damp. Inside, a split seal lets water into floors and panels just as it would anywhere.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

Bathroom resealing around Southbourne
Southbourne is close to 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, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
For landlords with property near Southbourne station, fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay. In the older streets around St. John's, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.
Southbourne is about 4 miles east of Havant, in West Sussex. Southbourne gets the same service as everywhere we cover: the old material taken out, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee.

Common problems we fix in Southbourne
Mould is the reason many people want their sealant replaced. Bathrooms without good ventilation keep the silicone damp for hours, and once it has grown into the bead, cleaning rarely gets it out.
Look out for these signs:
- Mouldy sealant that has gone black
- Leaking joints on a shower screen
- A messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal
- Cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone
Schools such as Southbourne Junior School are buildings too, and we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

Questions from Southbourne
Is Southbourne within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Do you cover Southbourne for bathroom resealing?
Yes, Southbourne is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Do you do kitchens as well as bathrooms?
Yes. The old sealant is cut out and the joint degreased, because cooking grease stops silicone sticking, then a colour-matched bead is laid.
How long before the new sealant can get wet?
Around 24 hours is typical, and we confirm the time for the product used. Using it sooner can damage the bead.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We are fully insured, and we have been doing sealant work for more than 20 years.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned before applying anything new.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes. Our 12-month guarantee covers every job, and we are ARBOMaster approved applicators.
What happens on the day
There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Point us to the joints and we’ll get on with it. The job generally takes half a day or less for one room, longer when the kitchen is included, including the tidy-up. Parking around Southbourne is normally 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.
- We protect the area and cut out all of the old sealant.
- The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
- Once it’s dry, any bath is filled so the bead is laid with it at its heaviest.
- We apply anti-fungal sanitary silicone in one even bead and tool it neatly.
- We clear away and tell you when it can get wet, usually after around 24 hours.
Before we arrive
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
