- Black mould in the silicone that won’t clean off
Can I do it myself?
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Bathroom resealing in Withdean, done properly
Homes in Withdean have the same weak spots as anywhere else: bath edges, tray joints, basin backs and kitchen upstands. Each one is stripped, cleaned and dried before new silicone goes in. If you are dealing with two layers of silicone, both failing and mouldy sealant that has gone black, we can help, whatever the surface.
In a smaller place like Withdean, homes are mostly houses and bungalows rather than flats, some older and some much newer. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do in a big town.
Our work is backed for twelve months.

Why act early in Withdean
A failed joint gets more costly to put right the longer it’s left. Water that gets behind a bath soaks into the floor, the panel and sometimes the ceiling below, turning a small job into a building repair. Around Withdean, water from a failed joint in an older home can soak into timber and plaster, and that is a much bigger job than renewing the sealant.
Doing several joints on one visit generally makes better use of the time than several visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. We’ll give you a clear price for the lot.

Signs you need bathroom resealing in Withdean
Silicone doesn’t last for ever. Every shower, every splash and every wipe with a cleaner slowly wear it down, and how long it lasts comes down to use, cleaning and ventilation.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Smears of silicone across the tiles
- Mouldy sealant that has gone black
- Leaking joints on a shower screen
- Splits where the tray meets the wall
If you look after a building such as St Bernadette's Catholic Primary School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.
Questions to ask before you book
- When the joint can take water or movement
- What happens if the job turns out different
- Who turns up on the day
- How long the guarantee is
Aftercare tips
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Check the joints every few months for splits or lifting
- Wipe up water along the back of the worktop
- Run the extractor fan during and after every shower
- Keep scourers and sharp tools away from the bead
Give the silicone time to cure before it gets wet, which is normally around 24 hours. After that, a quick wipe after showering helps keep it clean.
There’s no need to wait for a full refurbishment. Sealant is a maintenance item, like the paint on a window frame, and renewing it as soon as it fails protects everything around it.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
If you manage several properties in or around Withdean, jobs at different addresses can be quoted together. Just tell us the addresses and what each one needs, and photos by email help.
Letting agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the address, the job and how access works and we will give you a quote.
When it isn’t the sealant
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant will not do:
- A leaking waste, trap or valve
- A bath or tray that moves because it is not properly supported
- Water getting in through the grout rather than the sealant
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll say what we think.

How the visit works
Once we are on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. After that, the work takes a couple of hours for a single bath or shower. In a smaller place like Withdean, parking is seldom the issue; lanes, gates and long drives are worth mentioning. If the job is outside, tell us about side access and how high the joints are.
- We cover the area around the joints we are working on.
- We cut away the old sealant and clean off what’s left.
- 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.
- The joint is finished neatly and we explain when it can get wet.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Mention any tricky access

Withdean: your questions answered
Do you take on hotel work around Withdean?
Yes, hotels and guest houses are among the places we work. A room-by-room programme keeps most rooms in use while the work goes on.
Will you come out to Withdean?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Will it make a mess?
Tidy work is part of the job. Nearby surfaces are protected, and we clear up when we’re done.
Do you reseal kitchen worktops and sinks too?
Yes. We reseal worktop upstands, sinks and splashbacks, in a kitchen-suitable sealant, matched to the worktop where it’s on show.
Do you guarantee your resealing?
Yes. Every job carries our 12-month guarantee, and we are fully insured.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We’re an ARBOMaster approved applicator, which is run for the Arbo sealant brand.
Do I need to be at home?
That depends on where the joints are. Inside work needs someone to give us access.
Can mouldy silicone be sorted out?
Yes. Mould inside the bead rarely cleans out for good, so the bead comes out, the joint is treated and new anti-fungal silicone goes in.

What else we do in Withdean
What bathroom resealing looks like in Withdean
Withdean is close to 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. Withdean 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.
Letting a property close to Preston Park station? Then fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay. For an older house near a landmark such as St John the Evangelist's Church, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.
