Our bathroom resealing service in BN5

With over 20 years in the trade, we reseal baths, showers and kitchens in homes across BN5. We’re fully insured ARBOMaster approved applicators, and every job carries our 12-month guarantee. We work on basins & vanity units, baths and wet rooms, and people most often call us about black mould in the silicone that won’t clean off and failed sealant on the screen profile.

At the end, we look at the finished work together and tell you how long to leave it. The visit itself normally takes a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers, depending on the size of the job.

  1. We look at every joint first and check for movement or leaks.
  2. The old silicone is cut out completely, along with the film it leaves on the tiles.
  3. Joints are degreased and any mould is treated.
  4. With the joint dry, and any bath loaded with water, a single bead of anti-fungal silicone is applied.
  5. The bead is tooled smooth and you’re told the cure time, normally around 24 hours.

Landmarks near Henfield

In Henfield, that means homes and buildings near St Peter's Church, The Bell Inn and St Peter's CofE Primary School. Nearby you’ll also find The Dene Hospital (5.4 miles north-east) and Steyning Museum (3.7 miles south-west). Open spaces near Henfield include Woods Mill and Truleigh Hill.

Bathrooms and kitchens across BN5

In BN5, bathroom resealing takes in flats, houses, rentals and businesses, in Henfield, Small Dole and Blackstone and well beyond. The method is the same everywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and dried, and a fresh finish laid.

Hard water across most of the South East leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings. Whatever the job in BN5, surfaces are cleaned back properly before new sealant goes in.

Henfield: If you live in an older home near St Peter's Church, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. If you look after a building such as St Peter's CofE Primary School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

Can I do it myself?

If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.

The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.

What affects the quote in BN5

We don’t publish a price list, because no two jobs are the same. The quote depends on:

  • The size of the job
  • Mould in or behind the old joints
  • Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
  • How many areas need sealing

What it costs depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. We give a clear quote before work begins, so you know where you stand.

What to tell us for a quote

What to tell us when you ask for a quote:

  • The address or postcode of the job
  • Whether it has been sealed before
  • The type of property
  • Photos by email, if that is easy

For a quick quote, get us on the phone, or email us if that is easier. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we will explain what’s involved before giving you a price.

Honest limits

Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant will not do:

  • Failed grout lines across the wall
  • A cracked shower tray or bath (that needs repair or replacement)
  • Loose or hollow tiles, or failed tanking behind them

Aftercare tips

Looking after new joints is easy:

  • Dry worktop joints after washing up
  • Open a window or run the fan so the room dries
  • Wait for the cure time we give you
  • Stick to a soft cloth and a mild cleaner

Do not stand bottles along the bead, because they trap water against the silicone. A quick squeegee after showering keeps water from sitting on the joint.

Small signs come before a leak: lifting ends, gaps, dark shadows under the bead or a stain downstairs. If you spot one, it’s time to reseal.

Why it fails

Black mould is behind a lot of resealing. Bathrooms without good ventilation keep the silicone damp for hours, and mould that has grown into the silicone usually will not clean off.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Two layers of silicone, both failing
  • Water getting behind the bath panel
  • Sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away
  • Water escaping at the shower enclosure

FAQs for BN5

Do you come to BN5?

Yes. From our base in Crawley, we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland, and that includes BN5.

Are you fully insured?

Yes. We’re fully insured.

What information do you need?

Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. If you can, email a few pictures.

Does someone need to be in?

For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. Once we’ve agreed the job, you don’t need to watch us work.

Do you work for letting agents?

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

Can you reseal around my kitchen sink and worktop?

Yes. The old sealant is cut out and the joint degreased, because cooking grease stops silicone sticking, then a colour-matched bead is laid.

How much does bathroom resealing cost in BN5?

We do not publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. We agree the price before any work begins.
