Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy. Several properties can go on one quote.
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, the work is the same standard: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
How it works
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Point us to the joints and we’ll get on with it. The job generally takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom, including the tidy-up. For a village or hamlet like Thorpe Green, 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.
- We cover the area around the joints we’re working on.
- Old sealant is sliced away and the residue removed.
- We treat any mould and let the joint dry properly.
- Any bath is filled with water, then we lay a bead of anti-fungal silicone in white, clear or a matching colour.
- We finish the joint, clear up and tell you how long to leave it before it gets wet.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- 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
Aftercare tips
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep an eye on the corners, where splits start
- Run the extractor fan during and after every shower
- Wipe up water along the back of the worktop
- Dry the bead with a towel now and then
Don’t stand bottles along the bead, as they hold water against it. Squeegeeing the walls and tray after use keeps water from sitting on the joint.
Small signs come before a leak: lifting ends, gaps, dark shadows under the bead or a stain downstairs. Any of these means the joint needs attention.
What we are called out for in Thorpe Green
With age, silicone loses its stretch. Along worktops it tends to pull back from the wall, opening a hairline gap that lets water and crumbs in. Heat from the hob and strong sprays speed it along.
People normally contact us when they notice something like this:
- Gaps where the bath or tray has moved
- A bead that has pulled away from the tiles
- A reseal done over the top of the old bead
- Gaps between the worktop and the wall
Rented homes near Thorpe-Le-Soken station change hands often, and a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for.
What to look for in a quote
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
- Whether the sealant suits the joint

Bathrooms and kitchens in Thorpe Green
Thorpe Green is within about 3 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. Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
Managing a site like Rolph CofE Primary School? Then we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. For an older house near a landmark such as Parish Church of St Michael, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

Quotes for bathroom resealing in Thorpe Green
Call for a quick quote. The main things that affect it are:
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- The number of rooms or windows
- Any working-time requirements on site
- The amount of work

Why act early in Thorpe Green
You do not need a new bathroom because the sealant looks bad. A new bead often brings the whole room back, provided the bath, tray and tiles are in good order. If we find a deeper problem, you’ll hear it from us. Older cottages and farmhouses around Thorpe Green can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Rather than a set price list, 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
- We never seal over old sealant
- More than 20 years in sealant work
- A 12-month guarantee on all work

Different surfaces, different methods
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.
Shower trays & enclosures
There are generally two jobs in a shower: the tray-to-wall joint and the enclosure joints. Both take water every day, so both are resealed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone.
