Our bathroom resealing service in PA73
It is not only bathrooms. Worktop upstands, sink edges and splashback joints get wet every single day, and water that gets into the back edge of a worktop can swell the board. We reseal them with a kitchen-suitable silicone, matched to the worktop where it’s on show. We work on wet rooms, kitchen worktops & upstands and baths, and people most often call us about gaps where the bath or tray has moved and water getting behind the bath panel.
We keep the work tidy and contained to the area we are working on. The job usually takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom, and we explain the cure time before we leave.
- First the area is protected and every bit of old sealant removed.
- Next, the joint is cleaned and any mould is treated.
- We let it dry fully and fill the bath with water before sealing.
- New anti-fungal silicone goes on in a colour to suit and is tooled to a clean finish.
- We clear away and tell you when it can get wet, normally after around 24 hours.
What affects the price in PA73
A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

Bathrooms and kitchens across PA73
Our bathroom resealing work across PA73 covers homes, rentals and businesses, from Ballygown to the quieter places in between. The method is the same everywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and dried, and a fresh finish laid.
We work across all of Scotland, from the cities to the islands, and PA73 is part of that. Journeys are planned ahead, and outside jobs are booked around the forecast.
Ballygown: Whether the job is in Ballygown itself or nearby, the right material for each joint matters as much as a neat finish. In and around Ballygown, as anywhere, good bathroom resealing starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.
Should I try it myself first?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
How we quote for bathroom resealing
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:
- The amount of work
- Whether the work is at height
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- The type of sealant required
We don’t show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. Call for a quick quote and we will talk you through it.
What we need to know
To help us quote quickly, please include:
- Whether it has been sealed before
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- Roughly how big the job is
- Whether it’s a home or a business
Asking for a quote is easy: let us know the job and the location, and roughly how big it is. A few photos by email make the job easier to understand, and we’ll come back to you with a quote.
Why it fails
Plenty of failed sealant has been laid over the top of older sealant. New silicone will not bond to old silicone, so it peels, leaks and hides mould behind it.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- A bead that has pulled away from the tiles
- Water getting behind the bath panel
- Shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop
- Two layers of silicone, both failing
When something else is needed
We’d rather tell you now than do work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Cracked or missing grout between tiles (that’s regrouting)
- A leaking waste, trap or valve
- A tray or bath that is cracked through
How the job changes by surface
Basins & vanity units
Vanity units have long, worktop-style joints against the wall. Water that gets behind can damage the unit, so a neat, continuous bead matters.
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.
FAQs for PA73
Do you cover PA73?
Yes. We’re based in Crawley and work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Where do you work from?
Our base is Crawley. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Can tenants book the work?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
What do you put in the joint?
The product depends on the job: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Can you reseal around my kitchen sink and worktop?
Yes. Kitchen joints get extra degreasing before the new bead goes on, then we reseal in a colour to suit.
Is it OK to put new sealant on top of the old bead?
No, and it’s one of the main reasons reseals fail. We cut out all of the old sealant, clean the joint and start again.
Will you leave a mess?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we tidy up before we go.
