Our bathroom resealing service in BN22

Across BN22, the joints we reseal are the ones that fail in any home: bath edges, tray joints, basin backs and kitchen upstands. Every joint is cut out, cleaned and left dry before it’s resealed. Common call-outs are for mouldy sealant that has gone black and sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away, on shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and basins & vanity units.

You don’t need to clear the whole room or building before we come, just the space around the work. Everything nearby is protected, and the work takes two to three hours for a typical bath, depending on how much old sealant there is for a typical job.

  1. We start by protecting the area and stripping out the old bead.
  2. The joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould.
  3. We let it dry fully and fill the bath with water before sealing.
  4. We apply anti-fungal sanitary silicone in one even bead and tool it neatly.
  5. Finally we tidy up and explain the cure time before we leave.

Bathroom resealing across BN22: local notes

In BN22, bathroom resealing takes in flats, houses, rentals and businesses, from Eastbourne, Old Town and Upperton to the quieter places in between. Wherever the job is, all the old material comes out before anything new goes in.

The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, but outdoor sealant still needs a dry day and clean surfaces, so outside work in BN22 is planned around the forecast. In the coastal parts of BN22, the sea-facing side of a building takes the most weather, and that’s where sealant generally gives up first. Good preparation and the right sealant help it cope.

Hampden Park: If you look after a building such as Heron Park Primary Academy, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. For landlords with property near Hampden Park station, fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay.

Aftercare tips

Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Look for lifting corners and small gaps now and then
  • Wipe up water along the back of the worktop
  • Use gentle cleaners on the silicone
  • Wait for the cure time we give you

Keep water off the new bead until it has cured, which is generally around 24 hours. Once it’s cured, wiping it down after use keeps it looking new.

Each shower pushes a little more water through a failed joint. Over time that water reaches floors, walls and ceilings. Early resealing closes the gap before damage is done.

What happens if it’s left?

Bleach and mould sprays may lighten black marks for a while, but where mould is inside the silicone it usually comes back. Cutting it out and resealing with anti-fungal silicone is the fix that lasts.

Questions to ask before you book

  • How the joint is cleaned and prepared
  • How long to leave it before use
  • Whether all the old sealant comes out first
  • Whether you can choose the colour

Honest limits

To be straight with you, some problems need a different trade:

  • A cracked shower tray or bath (that needs repair or replacement)
  • Water getting in through the grout rather than the sealant
  • Water coming from the plumbing rather than the joint

Surface by surface

Sinks & splashbacks

Splashbacks in glass, tile or acrylic meet the worktop in a long joint. We renew it in clear, white or a matched colour.

Kitchen worktops & upstands

Water behind a laminate worktop can make the edge swell. A sound joint along the back edge stops that.
