About our bathroom resealing in Wellhouse
We fill the bath before sealing it. The weight settles the bath to its lowest point, so the new joint is not pulled apart the first time it’s used. It’s a small step that rushed reseals tend to skip. We’re often asked to deal with a bead that has pulled away from the tiles and black mould in the silicone that won’t clean off, on kitchen worktops & upstands, wet rooms and basins & vanity units.
Homes around Wellhouse are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. The work is the same as anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.
Big or small, it’s backed by our 12-month guarantee.

DIY versus a professional finish
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.
The process
Once we are on site, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. After that, the work takes a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers. Somewhere like Wellhouse needs a little journey planning: 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.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Move anything stored near the joints

Why it’s worth doing now in Wellhouse
Sorting it now is quick: it takes two to three hours for a typical bath, depending on how much old sealant there is. Wait for a leak and you may be looking at panels off, drying out and redecorating too. Older cottages and farmhouses around Wellhouse can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
What you get with us
- Colour agreed with you before we start
- Anti-fungal silicone where joints get wet
- A choice of colours where the product allows
- We never seal over old sealant

Looking after it afterwards
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Do not let bottles sit on the bead
- Dry worktop joints after washing up
- Keep the fan on for a while after bathing
- Keep scourers and sharp tools away from the bead
Wipe up standing water along the worktop joint and keep hot pans off the bead. A dry joint lasts longer.
Worktop joints fail quietly. Water gets behind the upstand and into the edge of a laminate worktop, and the board underneath can swell. Resealing before that happens protects the worktop.
Wellhouse questions
Can you do bathroom resealing in Wellhouse?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Wellhouse is part of that. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Is Wellhouse within the area you cover?
Yes. Wellhouse is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
How long does a bath or shower reseal take?
It depends on how many joints there are and how much old sealant has to come out. Allow a couple of hours for a typical bath or shower.
Where are you based?
Our base is in Crawley, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
Do you reseal kitchen worktops and sinks too?
Yes, often alongside a bathroom. Next to the sink we use a food-safe product where it’s needed.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. Hotels, offices and other businesses use us, and we’re fully insured.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes, every time. New silicone does not stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Will you leave a mess?
Tidy work is part of the job. Nearby surfaces are protected, and we clear up when we are done.
What we cannot put right
New sealant can’t fix everything, and we will tell you before we start. It won’t solve:
- Water coming from the plumbing rather than the joint
- Water getting in through the grout rather than the sealant
- Damage behind the tiles that needs a tiler
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will tell you honestly.

Wellhouse homes and their sealant
Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
If you live in an older home near Church of St Mary, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. Rented homes near Thatcham station change hands often, and a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for. Schools such as Hermitage Primary School are buildings too, and washroom and kitchen sealant there needs the same care as at home, and schools and businesses are part of our work as well as homes.
