When something else is needed

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what new sealant won’t do:

  • Cracked or missing grout between tiles (that is regrouting)
  • A tray that rocks until it’s re-bedded
  • Water coming from the plumbing rather than the joint

If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we seal

  • Basins & vanity units
  • Baths
  • Wet rooms
  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Sinks & splashbacks
  • Kitchen worktops & upstands

How we handle bathroom resealing in Strettington

A fresh bead of silicone changes how a bathroom looks more than most people expect. Black, patchy sealant makes clean tiles look tired, and a neat new joint puts that right in a short visit. Just as important, it closes the gaps water would otherwise get through. If you’re dealing with gaps between the worktop and the wall and cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone, we can put it right, whatever the surface.

Around Strettington, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. The work is the same as anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.

A 12-month guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once the job is done.

Bathroom resealing in Strettington: local notes

Strettington has hotels and guest accommodation nearby. As well as homes, we work in hotel bathrooms, where resealing and regrouting can be done room by room. Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.

For landlords with property near Chichester station, mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets. If you look after a building such as Boxgrove CofE Primary School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

DIY versus a professional finish

A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.

How the visit works

All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so you do not need to buy or prepare anything. Once we’ve agreed what’s being done, we protect the area and start. It normally takes a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen. For a village or hamlet like Strettington, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.

  1. Protection goes down around the bath, shower or worktop.
  2. Old sealant is sliced away and the residue removed.
  3. We treat any mould and let the joint dry properly.
  4. Baths are filled first, then anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied in a colour to suit.
  5. We finish the joint, clear up and tell you how long to leave it before it gets wet.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any tricky access
  • Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

What happens if it’s left?

Leaving a split or mouldy bead only stores up trouble. Water that gets behind a bath soaks into the floor, the panel and sometimes the ceiling below, and that is a far bigger job than a reseal. In a small place like Strettington, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

We do not show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll talk you through it.

What we are called out for in Strettington

Mould is the reason many people want their sealant replaced. Bathrooms without good ventilation give mould all the damp it needs, and mould that has grown into the silicone usually will not clean off.

Any of these means the joints need attention:

  • Leaking joints on a shower screen
  • Gaps between the worktop and the wall
  • Sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away
  • Gaps where the bath or tray has moved

Homes close to St Andrew's Church include some older properties, and older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether you can choose the colour
  • How the joint is cleaned and prepared
  • Whether VAT is included
  • Which sealant they’ll use, and why

Choosing a sealant specialist

How to look after the new joints

Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:

  • Don’t let bottles sit on the bead
  • Do not leave water standing on kitchen joints
  • Squeegee the walls and tray after use
  • Check the joints every few months for splits or lifting

Wipe up standing water along the worktop joint and keep hot pans away from the silicone. The drier the joint stays, the longer it lasts.

There’s no need to wait for a full refurbishment. Like paintwork, sealant needs renewing from time to time, and replacing it when it fails protects the rest of the room.
