- Cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone
- Two layers of silicone, both failing
- Water escaping at the shower enclosure
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Don’t leave water standing on kitchen joints
- Stick to a soft cloth and a mild cleaner
- Never pick at the silicone with a blade
- Dry the bead with a towel now and then
Have a look at the joints every few months. Small splits and lifting ends are easy to catch early, so if something doesn’t look right, just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
A few black dots in the silicone soon become a black line. When it has grown right through, it rarely cleans out, and nearby grout often goes the same way. Catching it early keeps it a simple reseal.
About our bathroom resealing in Thakeham
A reseal only lasts if the joint is properly prepared. Every bit of old silicone comes out, down to the thin film left on the tiles, then the joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould. New silicone goes on only when the joint is fully dry. We are often asked to deal with a joint torn by a bath that flexes and two layers of silicone, both failing, on shower trays & enclosures, baths and wet rooms.
For a small place like Thakeham, bathroom resealing is planned like any other job: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. Once we are there, the bathroom or kitchen gets the same care as anywhere else.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

What we do, step by step
When we get to you, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. Most jobs then take half a day or less for one room, longer when the kitchen is included. Somewhere like Thakeham needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- First, each joint is checked for movement and signs of water.
- Every trace of the old bead is removed, including the thin smear on the tiles.
- Joints are degreased and any mould is treated.
- With the joint dry, and any bath loaded with water, a single bead of anti-fungal silicone is applied.
- We tool the bead to a neat finish and give you the cure time, normally around 24 hours.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the work
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints

Advice
Surface by surface
Kitchen worktops & upstands
Laminate worktops swell if water gets into the core. A continuous bead along the back keeps water out.
Wet rooms
Not every wet room leak is a sealant problem. We reseal the joints and will tell you if the water seems to be coming from somewhere else.
Bathroom resealing in Thakeham: local notes
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.
Rented homes near Pulborough station change hands often, and a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Rydon Community College, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. For an older house near a landmark such as The Parish Church of St Mary, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

Honest limits
To be straight with you, there are a few things sealant will not fix:
- A tray or bath that is cracked through
- Cracked or missing grout between tiles (that’s regrouting)
- Loose or hollow tiles, or failed tanking behind them
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we seal
- Basins & vanity units
- Sinks & splashbacks
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & upstands

Can I do it myself?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.
