How bathroom resealing works in BN44
The bead of silicone around a bath, tray or worktop is what keeps water out of the gaps. Once it cracks or goes mouldy, water starts to find its way through. Every trace of the old sealant is taken out and replaced with anti-fungal sanitary silicone. We work on shower trays & enclosures, baths and sinks & splashbacks, and the jobs we see most are sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away and damp behind the bath or under the tray.
On the day, we start by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work begins. Most jobs take around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom.
- First the area is protected and every bit of old sealant removed, including the film left on the tiles.
- We clean and degrease the joint and treat any mould.
- Once it’s dry, any bath is filled so the bead is laid with it at its heaviest.
- We apply anti-fungal sanitary silicone in one even bead and tool it neatly.
- We tidy up and give you the cure time, usually around 24 hours.

Where we work in BN44
From Horsham, Steyning and Upper Beeding to its smaller places, homes across BN44 have bathrooms and kitchens of every age. Sealant and grout wear out in all of them, whether it’s a family bathroom, a rented flat or a hotel en suite.
From Victorian terraces to post-war new towns and modern estates, homes across the South East and London cover every era. Each needs the right sealant for its age and materials.
Steyning: Managing a site like Steyning CofE Primary School? Then 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. For landlords with property near Lancing station, a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for.

A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.
Honest limits
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- Cracks in the tray itself rather than the joint
- Cracked or missing grout between tiles (that is regrouting)
- Loose or hollow tiles, or failed tanking behind them
Why deal with it now?
A clean new bead makes a room look cared for, which helps when a home is being let or put on the market. Lumpy sealant with smears on the tiles has the opposite effect.
What your quote should include
- What happens if the job turns out different
- How long to leave it before use
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
What we’re called out for in BN44
Baths and trays move. Acrylic in particular gives slightly under the weight of water and a person, and a tray that isn’t fully bedded can rock. That movement works at the bead until it splits or peels away.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- Cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone
- Two layers of silicone, both failing
- Water getting behind the kitchen upstand
- Splits where the tray meets the wall
How the job changes by surface
Kitchen worktops & upstands
Water behind a laminate worktop can make the edge swell. A continuous bead along the back keeps water out, as long as the worktop itself is firmly fixed.
Baths
A bath shifts slightly every time it’s filled, so we fill it with water before sealing. The joint is then laid with the bath at its lowest point and is not torn the first time it’s used.
Common questions in BN44
Can mouldy silicone be sorted out?
Yes, by replacing the sealant. Cleaning products may lighten it, but the lasting fix is new anti-fungal silicone on a clean, treated joint. Airing the room well helps stop it returning.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We are fully insured for every job we do.
Can you just seal over the old silicone?
No. Fresh silicone cannot stick to the old bead, so it peels away and hides mould and water. All the old sealant comes out first.
What does bathroom resealing cost?
Every job is different, so each one gets its own quote. For a quick quote, call 0345 464 0079 or email us with a short description of the job.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint before resealing.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done.
