How bathroom resealing works in SO19
It is not only bathrooms. The joint between worktop and wall, the edge of the sink and the bottom of the splashback all take splashes every day, and water that gets into the back edge of a worktop can swell the board. Kitchen joints get a sealant suited to kitchens, colour-matched where it shows. Common call-outs are for water getting behind the kitchen upstand and a reseal done over the top of the old bead, on wet rooms, baths and kitchen worktops & upstands.
Most of a good job is in the preparation, so that’s where we spend the time. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. All told, the work takes half a day or less for one room, longer when the kitchen is included.
- We start by protecting the area and stripping out the old bead.
- We clean and degrease the joint and treat any mould.
- 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.
- Finally we tidy up and explain the cure time before we leave.

Where we work in SO19
Homes across SO19 range from older properties to new builds, and in places like Eastleigh, Midanbury and Thornhill there’s plenty of rented property too. Bathroom resealing keeps bathrooms and kitchens watertight and looking cared for.
London and the South East have homes from every era, from period terraces to post-war new towns and new estates. Each needs the right sealant for its age and materials. Coastal guest houses and holiday lets in SO19 can see heavy use in busy months, which is hard on sealant and grout.
Southampton: If you look after a building such as Bevois Town Primary School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. For landlords with property near St Denys station, fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay.
How we quote for bathroom resealing
Call for a quick quote. What matters most is:
- Whether the work is at height
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- The number and length of the joints
- Any working-time requirements on site
What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we ask a few questions first and agree the price before starting.
Helping us quote
To make quoting easier, please include:
- The rough size of the job
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- Whether it has been sealed before
We do not publish a price list, as no two jobs are quite the same. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To get started, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
When something else is needed
We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what sealant can’t put right:
- Damage behind the tiles that needs a tiler
- Failed grout lines across the wall
- A tray that rocks until it’s re-bedded
Landlord and commercial work in SO19
Housing providers, facilities teams and property managers book us too. We can quote a run of properties together, and we are fully insured for the work.
Hotels need rooms back in use, so the work can be planned room by room around your bookings where we can. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
How to look after the new joints
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Give the silicone its full cure time
- Never pick at the silicone with a blade
- Look for lifting corners and small gaps now and then
- Run the extractor fan during and after every shower
Have a look at the joints every few months. A small split or a corner lifting is easy to spot, so if something doesn’t look right, just call 0345 464 0079 or email us.
Small signs come before a leak: lifting ends, gaps, dark shadows under the bead or a stain downstairs. Any of these means the joint needs attention.
Common problems we fix in SO19
With age, silicone loses its stretch. Along worktops it tends to pull back from the wall, leaving a thin gap where water and food collect. Heat from the hob and strong sprays speed it along.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop
- Failed sealant on the screen profile
- Cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone
- Black mould in the silicone that won’t clean off
Common questions in SO19
Where are you based?
We are based in Crawley, West Sussex, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.
How long does the new silicone need before I use the shower?
Around 24 hours is typical, and we confirm the time for the product used. Getting it wet too early can spoil the new joint.
How much does bathroom resealing cost in SO19?
The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Call for a quick quote.
Do the sealants smell?
Possibly a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Doing several areas at once is usually more efficient, so mention them when you ask for a quote.
How long does it take to reseal a bath or shower?
It depends on how many joints there are and how much old sealant has to come out. Allow a couple of hours for a typical bath or shower.
What do you put in the joint?
Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, picked for each joint. We explain the product when we quote.
