Materials and what they mean for the repair

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Common problems we fix in Bexhill-on-Sea

Sealant doesn’t last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

Clients normally contact us about:

  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Sealant that is split or lifting
  • Stained silicone

Before booking anyone

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • How the colour is matched
  • If travel is included in the price
  • What aftercare is recommended

10 questions to ask before you book

When a repair is not the answer

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • A flexing bath
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

What we work on

  • Wet rooms
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Baths

Resealing in Bexhill-on-Sea: why it matters

Putting new silicone over old does not last. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • No need to remove anything
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a couple of hours. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

FAQs for Bexhill-on-Sea

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

How long does a reseal take?

Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Can new silicone go over old?

No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

How to care for the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Store bottles on a shelf

Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.

Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Bexhill-on-Sea

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

For anyone letting property in or around Bexhill-on-Sea, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
