The process
We work through the job in order: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. Typically it takes a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen, and the area is left clean. In a small place like Wivelsfield, access is usually the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We look at every joint first and check for movement or leaks.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before

What else we do in Wivelsfield
Why it’s worth doing now in Wivelsfield
Sorting it now is quick: it takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom. Left until water gets through, the job can grow to lifting panels, drying out and decorating. Older cottages and farmhouses around Wivelsfield can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Doing several joints on one visit is usually more efficient than separate visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. You’ll get one clear quote for the whole job.

How the job changes by surface
Baths
Most bath leaks begin along the long edge, particularly where there’s a shower over the bath. It gets one smooth bead of anti-fungal silicone, tooled so water can’t sit on it.
Basins & vanity units
Basin joints are short and close to eye level: so we keep the line tidy and even, in white, clear or a colour to suit.
How to look after the new joints
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Dry worktop joints after washing up
- Squeegee the walls and tray after use
- Give the silicone its full cure time
- Move toiletries away from the joint
Treat the new bead gently when you clean: warm soapy water and a soft cloth do the job. Scourers and blades can nick the surface, and a nicked bead lets mould in sooner.
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.
Wivelsfield questions
Is Wivelsfield in your area for bathroom resealing?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Wivelsfield 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 send you a clear quote.
Do you cover smaller places like Wivelsfield?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We’re approved under the ARBOMaster scheme.
Should I try DIY first?
That depends on the joint. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done.
Does someone need to be in?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. Indoors, that generally means someone at home.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help too.
My sealant has gone black. Can you sort it?
Yes. Mould inside the bead rarely cleans out for good, so we cut it out, treat the joint and reseal with anti-fungal silicone.
Signs you need bathroom resealing in Wivelsfield
Plenty of failed sealant has been laid over the top of older sealant. Fresh silicone can’t grip the old bead underneath, so it peels, leaks and hides mould behind it.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- A bead that has pulled away from the tiles
- Gaps where the bath or tray has moved
- Black mould in the silicone that won’t clean off
- Water getting behind the bath panel
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Wivelsfield Primary School, 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.

What bathroom resealing looks like in Wivelsfield
Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
Rented homes near Wivelsfield station change hands often, and mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets. If you live in an older home near Ote Hall Chapel, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.
