When to call us in The Hummicks
A bath shifts a little every time it’s filled and emptied. Acrylic in particular gives slightly under the weight of water and a person, while a poorly supported tray can shift underfoot. Over time the joint tears or pulls away from the tile.
The most common problems we see are:
- New sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting
- A messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal
- Black spots spreading through the bead
- Water getting behind the kitchen upstand
Schools such as Beaulieu Village Primary School are buildings too, and its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.
What your quote should include
- Which colour the sealant will be
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
- Whether VAT is included
- How hidden problems are handled
Why deal with it now?
The difference in a professional reseal is mostly what you do not see: removing all the old sealant, degreasing the joint, treating mould and drying it properly. Without that preparation, the new bead will not last. Around The Hummicks, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.
Why book with us
- Trusted Arbo and Everbuild sealants
- Old sealant always removed completely
- A choice of colours where the product allows
- Tidy, careful work

Bathrooms and kitchens in The Hummicks
The Hummicks is within about 2 miles of 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. The Hummicks has hotels and guest accommodation nearby. Hotel bathrooms are part of our work as well as homes, and can be done room by room.
Homes close to Church of the Blessed Virgin and Child include some older properties, and older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. If you let a flat or house near Beaulieu Road station, fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay.

How the visit works
There’s no need to move everything out, only the area right around the joints. Everything nearby is protected, and the work takes a couple of hours for a single bath or shower for a typical job. In a small place like The Hummicks, access is normally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We cover the area around the joints we’re working on.
- We cut away the old sealant and clean off what’s left.
- Mould is treated, then the joint is left to dry thoroughly.
- Baths are filled first, then anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied in a colour to suit.
- The joint is finished neatly and we explain when it can get wet.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any tricky access
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on

What else we do in The Hummicks
For landlords and businesses
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so we plan the work room by room. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
For anyone letting property in or around The Hummicks, jobs at different addresses can be quoted together. Just tell us the addresses and what each one needs.
How the job changes by surface
Shower trays & enclosures
Water often gets past the wall profile of a shower enclosure. We reseal it along with the base of the enclosure, sealing the side the enclosure’s instructions call for.
Baths
The long joint down the side of a bath is where most leaks start, particularly where there’s a shower over the bath. We finish it with a single, even bead of anti-fungal silicone.
DIY versus a professional finish
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
