When it isn’t the sealant
We’d rather tell you now than do work that won’t last, so here’s what sealant cannot put right:
- Movement from a bath with loose feet or no proper support
- Cracked or missing grout between tiles (that is regrouting)
- A tray or bath that’s cracked through

Bathroom resealing in St Leonards
The secret of a lasting bead is the preparation. The old sealant is removed to the last smear, then the joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould. New silicone goes on only when the joint is fully dry. If you’re dealing with mouldy sealant that has gone black and gaps between the worktop and the wall, we can put it right, on basins & vanity units, kitchen worktops & upstands and shower trays & enclosures alike.
Around St Leonards, 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.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, in St Leonards and everywhere else we cover.

DIY versus a professional finish
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
What happens if it’s left?
Tired sealant is not a reason to replace a bath or shower. A new bead often brings the whole room back. If something else is wrong, we will tell you. In a small place like St Leonards, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Doing several joints on one visit is normally more efficient than separate visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. You’ll get one clear quote for the whole job.
Why us?
- We agree the colour with you first
- Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over
- Sealant colour chosen to suit
- Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas
What we do, step by step
A visit follows a simple pattern: we check the joints, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, do the work and clear up. Most jobs take a couple of hours for a single bath or shower. In a small place like St Leonards, access is normally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- First the area is protected and every bit of old sealant removed.
- We clean and degrease the joint and treat any 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in

What the job involves on each surface
Kitchen worktops & upstands
The joint between worktop and wall takes splashes, crumbs and cleaning sprays. The new bead is colour-matched where it shows.
Baths
Most bath leaks begin along the long edge, especially under a shower. We finish it with a single, even bead of anti-fungal silicone.
What bathroom resealing looks like in St Leonards
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.
For landlords with property near Wendover station, fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay. Homes close to Church of St Leonard include some older properties, and walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

Common questions in St Leonards
Will you come out to St Leonards?
Yes. St Leonards is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Can you do bathroom resealing in St Leonards?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and St Leonards is part of that. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us what needs doing.
Can you reseal around my kitchen sink and worktop?
Yes. Next to the sink we use a food-safe product where it’s needed.
How long does it take to reseal a bath or shower?
One bath or shower is around two hours’ work, including cutting out the old sealant. A whole bathroom plus the kitchen may take most of the day.
Is it OK to put new sealant on top of the old bead?
No, and it’s one of the main reasons reseals fail. We cut out all of the old sealant, clean the joint and start again.
How do I get a quote for bathroom resealing in St Leonards?
We don’t publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. You’ll get a clear quote before any work starts.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.

Aftercare tips
Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:
- Stick to a soft cloth and a mild cleaner
- Never pick at the silicone with a blade
- Keep the fan on for a while after bathing
- Wait for the cure time we give you
Do not stand bottles along the bead, because they trap water against the silicone. A quick squeegee after showering helps the joint dry.
Mould that starts as a few spots spreads through the bead. When it has grown right through, it rarely cleans out. Replacing the sealant early keeps the job small.
