How the visit works
We work through the job in order: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. For most jobs that takes a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers, and the area is left clean. Somewhere like Streat needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- We protect the area and cut out all of the old sealant, including the film left on the tiles.
- 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.
- New anti-fungal silicone goes on in a colour to suit and is tooled to a clean finish.
- We tidy up and give you the cure time, normally around 24 hours.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Tell us if parking is tricky

Advice
How we handle bathroom resealing in Streat
We fill the bath before sealing it. The weight settles the bath to its lowest point, so the new joint isn’t pulled apart the first time it’s used. Quick jobs often leave it out, and it makes a real difference. If you’re dealing with smears of silicone across the tiles and black mould in the silicone that won’t clean off, we can put it right.
Around Streat, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee.

How to look after the new joints
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Keep an eye on the corners, where splits start
- Dry worktop joints after washing up
- Keep the fan on for a while after bathing
- Keep bottles off the sealant line
Check the sealant now and then. Small splits and lifting ends are easy to catch early, and if anything looks wrong, just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
Do not wait for a refit to deal with failed sealant. Like paintwork, sealant needs renewing from time to time, and replacing it when it fails protects the rest of the room.
Streat questions
Do you cover smaller places like Streat?
Yes. Streat is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Is Streat in your area for bathroom resealing?
Yes, Streat is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job.
Should I try DIY first?
It depends on the job. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes, regularly. Larger jobs can be planned room by room or area by area to suit the site.
Where are you based?
We’re based in Crawley, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.
How long before the new sealant can get wet?
Around 24 hours is typical, and we confirm the time for the product used. Getting it wet too early can spoil the new joint.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done and you will get one quote.
What sealant do you use?
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’ll explain our choice.
How the job changes by surface
Basins & vanity units
A vanity top has a joint along the wall and sometimes at the sides. Water that gets behind can damage the unit, so the joint is sealed in one unbroken line.
Sinks & splashbacks
Splashbacks in glass, tile or acrylic meet the worktop in a long joint. It’s resealed in white, clear or a colour to suit.
Signs you need bathroom resealing in Streat
Silicone does not last for ever. Every shower, every splash and every wipe with a cleaner take their toll over the years, so its life depends on how the room is used, cleaned and aired.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Black spots spreading through the bead
- Sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away
- A messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal
- Water escaping at the shower enclosure
Letting a property close to Plumpton station? Then mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets.
What your quote should include
- What product goes in the joint
- Whether they’re fully insured
- Who turns up on the day
- Which colour the sealant will be

Bathroom resealing around Streat

Homes close to Streat Church include some older properties, and bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant. Managing a site like Plumpton Primary School? Then we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

Can I do it myself?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
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?
Running new silicone over the old joint can look tidy for a few weeks, but it won’t bond. It lifts, traps water and grows mould behind it. Around Streat, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs, plus any working-time requirements on site. Ask us for a quote and we’ll go through it with you.
