About bathroom resealing in BN18

The bead of silicone around a bath, tray or worktop is what keeps water out of the gaps. When it splits, shrinks or turns black, water gets behind it. Our team cut the old bead out completely and lay a new one in anti-fungal sanitary silicone. We’re often asked to deal with water escaping at the shower enclosure and a messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal, across shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and sinks & splashbacks.

When we get to you, we check the joints match what you told us. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. After that, the work takes half a day or less for one room, longer when the kitchen is included.

  1. First the area is protected and every bit of old sealant removed.
  2. Next, the joint is cleaned and any mould is treated.
  3. The joint is left to dry, and baths are filled with water first.
  4. We apply anti-fungal sanitary silicone in one even bead and tool it neatly.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can get wet, usually after around 24 hours.

Near you in Yapton

We work in homes and buildings around St Philip Howard Catholic High School and Yapton CE Primary School. The nearest railway station is Barnham station, roughly 1.5 miles north-west of the centre. Other landmarks nearby include Bognor Regis Museum (3.9 miles south-west) and Arundel and District Hospital (3.2 miles north-east). Not far away are WWT Arundel.

Bathrooms and kitchens across BN18

Homes across BN18 range from older properties to new builds, and in places like Yapton, Arundel and Middleton-on-Sea there’s plenty of rented property too. Sound sealant and clean grout keep water out and rooms looking cared for.

London and the South East have homes from every era, from period terraces to post-war new towns and new estates. The right sealant depends on the age and materials of the building, wherever it is in BN18. BN18 includes coastal places, where outside joints face more wind, rain and salt than they would inland. Joints on seaward walls tend to fail first.

Yapton: Letting a property close to Barnham station? Then mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets. If you look after a building such as Yapton CE Primary School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

Why act early?

Leaving a split or mouldy bead only stores up trouble. Once water is behind the bath, it can reach floorboards, panels and the ceiling underneath, turning a small job into a building repair.

DIY versus a professional finish

If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.

Common problems we fix in BN18

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. Hot pans and harsh cleaners don’t help.

The problems people usually mention when they call include:

  • Gaps between the worktop and the wall
  • Gaps where the bath or tray has moved
  • Water getting behind the bath panel
  • Black spots spreading through the bead

Honest limits

New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It won’t solve:

  • Cracked or missing grout between tiles (that’s regrouting)
  • Water coming from the plumbing rather than the joint
  • Movement from a bath with loose feet or no proper support

What affects the cost of bathroom resealing

We do not publish a price list, because no two jobs are the same. The quote depends on:

  • Working hours on commercial sites
  • Whether there’s mould to deal with
  • Access and height
  • Which sealant suits the joint

Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs, along with when we can work on site. Ask us for a quote and we will explain what it covers.

Asking for a quote

Photos help, but a description is a good start. Try to tell us:

  • The problem you’ve noticed
  • The type of property
  • Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
  • How many joints, rooms or windows are involved

Every job is quoted individually. Simply ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and describe the job and send photos if you have them.

BN18 questions

Can tenants book the work?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Can landlords and businesses book you?

Yes, we do. We work in homes, commercial premises and hotels, and we’re fully insured.

What should I tell you?

A short description and the location, with photos by email if possible. We’ll ask anything else we need to know.

Do you reseal kitchen worktops and sinks too?

Yes. Kitchen joints get extra degreasing before the new bead goes on, then a colour-matched bead is laid.

Will there be a smell?

Sometimes, a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures.

Do you have insurance?

Yes. We are fully insured, and we can confirm the details when we quote.

Where are you based?

We are based in Crawley, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.
